Education fuels the future. 

The Mayanot Institute of Jewish Studies has devoted 28 years to ensuring every Jewish young adult has a portal of connection to the information, the learning, and the connection that fuels transformative Jewish education. Grounded in identity, energized with inspiration, our alumni return to their college campuses and communities with unshakeable roots. They build lives and homes guided by their connection to their heritage, their land, and their People – and the energy is contagious. 

At a time when Jewish lives are under attack, we need tools to fortify our communities and deepen our resilience. 

In a world where Jewish identity is under assault – on college campuses, in public discourse, and through rising global antisemitism – we need to ignite proud, knowledgeable, and empowered young leaders to challenge our opposers with the potent forces of Jewish pride and purpose. 

At Mayanot, we’re doing exactly that.

From the heart of Jerusalem, our nearly-completed Mayanot World Center – is ready to welcome students who are eager to power up their Judaism. Both the men's and women’s programs continue to inspire young people from around the world, equipping them with the knowledge, tools, and passion to live meaningful, impactful Jewish lives. The Mayanot Shul also provides a vibrant space for alumni and locals to come together in prayer, learning, and connection, creating an even greater ripple effect in the community. We finally have the capacity to double the number of students we impact. But to fill these spaces, we need your help.

Scholarships are the critical ingredient allowing Mayanot students to cultivate Jewish pride wherever they go. 

Since Mayanot’s inception, scholarships have always been the engine driving our growth. Thousands of students have relied on this funding in order to tap into the Maynot resources that facilitate maximal personal and spiritual development. Every contribution to our scholarship fund powers up Mayanot so that we can power up our students, who in turn power up their communities across the globe. 

After 28 years, it’s safe to say Mayanot is a powerhouse of Jewish education. No coincidence, the numerical value of the word for strength – koach – is 28. This year, we are harnessing our tremendous collective koach to double our reach, expand our programs, and power up an entire generation of young Jews to face the challenges of our time. 

This is Mayanot. This is the power of Jewish education.

Let’s POWER UP – our students, our communities, and the world.
