Touray TILT (Tour Israel, Learn Torah) is for high school girls looking to experience Torat Yisrael in Eretz Yisrael with Am Yisrael: a unique blend of time in the Beit Midrash, dynamic shiurim, tiyulim and chesed in one unforgettable summer.
Torat Yisrael
Learning Torah is a central focus of Touray TILT. Three weeks of the summer are spent at MMY learning Tanach, Torah Shebe’al Peh and Machshevet Yisrael. Talented madrichot and dedicated faculty guide the learning and help each participant explore the Beit Midrash, making it an inspiring place to learn. Participants share the Beit Midrash with a group of High School students from England as well as the MMY Summer Program for University Students. These motivated young women add to the beautiful Kol Torah of the program by serving as role models and chavrutot.
Eretz Yisrael
Tiyulim on TILT are an enhancement and extention of the learning done in the Beit Midrash. By participating in fun and meaningful tiyulim, participants will bring their knowledge of Torah to life in a manner impossible in any other country. Two weeks of intense touring and hiking will help participants fully explore Israel's beauty and meaning.
Am Yisrael
Through acts of chessed and achdut, participants on TILT gain firsthand knowledge of the different ways of contributing to, and being involved with, Jews in Eretz Yisrael. Chesed projects from previous summers include preparing food packages for needy families, visiting orphanages and hospitals, and picking fruits for tzedakah. Exposure to a range of different communities and personalities introduces participants to different aspects of what the modern State of Israel is all about.
