JNF and U: Bar/Bat Mitzvah Projects

Jewish National Fund played a central role in establishing the State of Israel, so it is very appropriate to choose a JNF project for your Bar/Bat Mitzvah. JNF is also the leading environmental agency in Israel, so if you’re interested in the environment, both here and in Israel, a JNF project is for you. JNF helps the people of Israel in many ways. You will receive a special JNF certificate at your Bar/Bat Mitzvah service for taking part in tikkun olam/service projects through JNF. Click here, and find inspiration to add meaning to your own Bar/Bat Mitzvah celebration!

B’nai Mitzvah Remembrance Wall

This stone wall, located in Jerusalem’s American Independence Park and designed to look like a Torah scroll, allows children celebrating their Bar/Bat Mitzvah to link their names to a child who perished in the Holocaust and continue the circle of life. For an $1,800 donation a glass tile will be embedded into the wall that bears the name of the B’nai Mitzvah child, his/her hometown and date of the simcha, as well as the name and home country of a child who perished at the hands of the Nazis. Please allow 6 weeks for the tile to be embedded and for a plaque with a personalized certificate to be sent to the B’nai Mitzvah child. Funds raised from the wall will go towards developing, maintaining, and advancing JNF’s five Israel campsites for Jewish youth.

Jewish National Fund’s Plant Your Way to Israel™ program provides students with an opportunity to earn a free trip to Israel. Students fundraise for their trip by selling trees for $36. Half of the funds go to planting trees in Israel with JNF, and the other half can be used by the student for any trip to Israel.
