ATZUM is happy to announce that we are now accepting applications for the Abe and Gert Nutkis Scholarship. The application deadline is March 15, 2012.
The application can be found here.
The Abe and Gert Nutkis Scholarship is intended to enable young adults to study and volunteer in Israel. The recipients will receive up to $5,000, so that they can study in a co-educational institution, while volunteering a minimum of four hours a week, either with ATZUM or an organization approved by ATZUM. Priority will be given to applicants with financial need and those who have little or no previous experience in Israel.
Past recipients have lived in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and various other locations throughout Israel. Their courses have covered a wide range of topics from religion to art history. In addition, candidates are afforded the opportunity to learn Hebrew as well as experience and explore Israeli Society.
If you are interested in applying for one of next year’s scholarships, please begin the application process today!
