Job Description
Opportunity for Impact
RootOne is a “Jewish start-up” – an innovative, dynamic initiative that is pro-actively inspiring a generation of teens to be more confident and proud Jews as they enter the next stage of their lives. RootOne, along with its youth serving trip providers, redefine and deepen the typical teen Israel summer trip experience so that its impact is long-lasting. It does so by reducing the cost of participation and by diversifying Israel experiences to make them more accessible to a wider audience of Jewish teens.
We know that an intentionally designed and well-facilitated immersive experience in Israel has the capacity to breathe vitality, passion, and commitment among Jewish teens that could directly impact the future landscape of North American Jewish life. It provides a framework that allows Jewish teens to explore many of the issues that matter most to them as adolescents and as young Jews. Research shows that outside of Jewish day school (which only a small percentage of Jewish teens in North America attend), there is no greater impact on a young person’s Jewish identity formation than an Israel trip with their peers.
An Israel experience increases the likelihood of Jewish teens being more committed to their Jewish
community in the long term, maintaining personal relationships with other Jews, and assuming leadership
roles in the world. At a time when Jewish voices on campus need to be heard more than ever, the Israel
experience has proven to increase the connections of young Jews to their fellow Jews and to greatly
enhance their connection to Israel. At scale, this experience can radically transform the trajectory of North
American Jewry. Learn more at www.rootone.org and www.jewishedproject.org.
