Birthright Israel: Shorashim

Shorashim is a cutting-edge non-profit organization that has dedicated more than 30 years to building long-lasting bridges between Americans and Israelis through innovative, immersive adventures. On Shorashim, Americans and Israelis explore Israel, side-by-side, for the entire experience. Our transformational, authentic journeys offer new perspectives, focusing on experiencing the culture, sites, scenes, vibes, variety of stories, and people of Israel, in the way that connects to each participant. The adventure is made, not only by what is seen and experienced, but by the people that participants encounter and the close group formed. Since Birthright Israel’s inception, we have worked in valued partnership with JUF to offer tailored Birthright Israel adventures to 18-to-26 year olds in the Chicago community. Shorashim is a leading trip provider, with trips running in December, January and May through August, with all of our Chicago community trips departing from Chicago!
