Midrasha at a Glance
Better Together:
Better Together is our intergenerational program where teens are paired with senior citizens from the community to connect and learn from one another. This program also informs teens about what it means to be a senior citizen in today's world. Volunteer hours are available for this cohort. Follow us on Instagram @bettertogetherinabox!
The Hamsa Fund:
(The East Bay's Jewish Teen Philanthropy Board) empowers teens to "be the change we want to see in the world." Through monthly meetings, teens learn the 4-1-1 of philanthropy and tzedakah (justice), in order to choose a cause, raise money, and pick organizations to support through grant funds. Follow our journey on Instagram @hamsafund!
Project Ezrach:
Ezrach, meaning "citizen" in Hebrew aims to teach our teens "how to citizen". Our newest civic engagement program allows teens to pick an issue they are passionate about and learn how to advocate for it through education, advocacy, and service. Not to mention an end-of-cohort Spring Break Impact Learning Trip! Follow us on Instagram @projectezrach!
Retreats/Shabbaton:
Midrasha retreats are the glue of our program. Teens spend a Shabbat weekend in community meeting new Jewish friends from all over the Bay Area. Enjoying nature with hikes, campfires and star-filled Havdalah celebrations. After a weekend relaxing in pajamas, CCM teens only want more!
Mifgash:
Mifgash (Encounter in Hebrew) is a 10 day program with Israeli teens, hosted by Midrasha teens. Summer Mifgash interweaves Israeli & American teens with bus adventures throughout the Bay Area, whether on roller-coasters, combing beaches, exploring new technology or touring the Bay, teens bond & grow their Jewish identity. Join us: 29 July - Aug. 7, 2022! Follow us on instagram @mifgashmikim!
