Our required chesed component takes place offsite on Thursday afternoons. Group chesed projects are Monday afternoons and are dedicated to Chesed and Sheirut Leumi – service to the country. Our students elect to work in a variety of settings, working within a social service or community framework. Their choices include, among others, working with handicapped children, disadvantaged youth, terror victims, the elderly or packing food for the poor. Through their interactions with the people of Israel, our students develop a love of Am Yisrael and a real connection with its people.
