Our innovative approaches today provide young people and families with options to build the life they dream of in Israel.

Aliyah services pave the way for building a new life in Israel.

The cornerstone of Jewish Agency work since Israel’s founding, aliyah has been steadily rising over the last decade in North America. Today some 3,500 North Americans make their home in Israel each year. To make the aliyah experience seamless and to provide the best possible service to each new immigrant, the Jewish Agency has partnered with Nefesh B’Nefesh in a new joint venture.

Through Partnership 2000 (P2K), you’ve set a new paradigm for partnering with mutual impact.

The energy and commitment of our partners in this truly unique global platform creates real change in partnered communities. And the people-to-people connections and friendships that develop add a completely different dimension to the Israel/Diaspora relationship.

P2K partners your community directly with Israel’s people.
