As part of our mission of inspiring every Jewish student at Northwestern to make an enduring and meaningful commitment to Jewish life, Northwestern Hillel encourages students to build a personal connection to Israel through travel, study, and work experiences.

This year, thanks to the generous contribution of a wonderful Northwestern family, Hillel is again pleased to offer Yalla Israel Experience Grants for Northwestern students who will be studying, interning, volunteering, and/or working in Israel between June - December 2024.

Each Yalla grant will be $250 - $500.

Yalla grant applications will be accepted and awarded on a rolling basis. To be considered for a grant, please complete the brief application below and submit it as soon as possible. Applicants may be interviewed by the Yalla Grant selection committee.
