This year has been unlike any we could have ever anticipated and will be one we never forget. What began as a year filled with hope and excitement in celebration of Birthright Israel’s 20th anniversary was overwhelmed early on by the impact of the pandemic. We made the difficult decision in March to begin postponing Birthright Israel trips due to COVID-19. More than 35,000 eager participants had their Birthright Israel plans put on hold. Despite this pause in our program, however, you, our supporters, did not postpone your generosity.
