Israel
In keeping with our core value of K'lal Yisrael, the Jewish Federation of Howard County continues as always to focus on our brothers and sisters in Israel. The Israel Committee creates programs and events that help educate the community about Israel; including a speaker series and Israeli holiday programs for Yom Ha'Atzmaut and Yom Hazikaron.
Join the virtual Israel Café program live from Israel each month, from September 2021 thru June 2022.
Learn about the latest news in Israel and the Middle East, and tour the country itself, visiting popular towns and sites with Howard County’s virtual shaliach, Shay Rubinstein!
Shlichut is an outreach program that brings shlichim (cultural emissaries) from Israel to live and work in Howard County. The shaliach works with synagogues, preschools, religious schools, youth groups and others to create and promote Israel-related activities in Howard County.
Travel to Israel on a Federation mission to experience all that Israel has to offer with your friends and neighbors from right here in Howard County. Discover the old and the new while connecting with the roots of Judaism and the modern state of Israel.
