Are you craving that extra independence camp can’t offer, but want an experience more meaningful than a teen tour? With AJSS, you’ll spend your summer volunteering for organizations that provide essential social services while living in and exploring a part of the U.S. that’s completely foreign to you. During the week, you’ll get your hands dirty ??? hammering, painting, shoveling, distributing food ??? whatever we can do to help people in need. On the weekends, you’ll either travel to nearby cities or enjoy a weekend at ???home??? to explore your local surroundings. Unlike other programs, AJSS encourages you to take an active role in your summer experience. You’ll have opportunities to plan activities during our weekend getaways, coordinate evening programs that take advantage of local culture and history, and even explore new ways for the group to celebrate Shabbat. By the end of the summer, you’ll have created a pluralistic Jewish community with amazing new friends, and made a lasting impact on the lives of so many others. Join AJSS and be part of our 60+ year history of helping communities across the nation.
