Volunteer Scholarships

Volunteerism is a primary component of Ve’ahavta’s core values. Volunteering is the most fundamental act of citizenship and philanthropy in our society. It is offering time, energy and skills of one’s own free will. By caring and contributing to change, volunteers decrease suffering and disparity, while they gain skills, self-esteem and change their lives. People work to improve the lives of others and, in return, enhance their own.

Ve’ahavta is committed to increasing the number of international volunteer placements. Through donations Ve’ahavta offers subsidies to volunteers. These subsidies will offset the costs faced by volunteers and provide incentives to commit to mid and long-term placements. These subsidies will also make international placements accessible to people who otherwise could not afford the expense of such an opportunity, such as students, lower income individuals, and marginalized groups.
