The first Eitanim group in our community was launched at Young Israel of East Brunswick, on February 17, with 14 teens. Over the course of 10 meetings, the participants are/will be working on three different projects, such as researching successful Israeli startups and presenting how they influenced US citizens and companies. They designed a campaign encouraging American teens to visit Israel and to celebrate Israel’s 71st Independence Day, working in 5 different groups, each representing one decade in Israel’s history. The groups will later compete against each other presenting the major events and achievements in that decade. The program was brought to our community and sponsored by Federation, in partnership with IAC and Young Israel of East Brunswick.
