A year long Journey of
Growth
JWA together with MOMentum, a global outreach organisation in the USA, provides an opportunity for Melbourne Jewish women to participate in a life-changing 7-day fully immersive experience in Israel.
This trip is the beginning of a year-long journey of growth, guiding each woman to explore her own personal and communal Jewish connection. Through this transformative experience each woman will acquire knowledge and understanding which will benefit her family, her children and her community.
Following the trip to Israel there will be monthly personalised education sessions and events related to Judaism and Israel.
There will be opportunities to foster new friendships through social events in Melbourne.
This program is highly subsidised by MOMentum and therefore there are
specific eligibility criteria
Eligibility Criteria
• Jewish mothers with children 19 and under living at home
• Jewish mothers who are not Shabbat observant
• Jewish mothers who are in good mental and physical health
• Jewish mothers who are able to commit for the duration of the year long program
• Willingness to initiate a group fundraising event to benefit the next cohort of Jewish mothers
The application process involves the completion of the online MOMentum application form and a face to face interview.
Each application is carefully considered by the selection committee.
