Mission Statement:
The mission of Volunteers for Israel is to connect
Americans to Israel through volunteer service.
We achieve this goal by partnering with military and civilian
organizations that enable volunteers to work side-by-side
with Israelis.
We promote solidarity and good will among Israelis,
American Jews and other friends of Israel.
VFI provide Diaspora Jewry and other friends of Israel with an opportunity:
* To assist in the strengthening of Israel through hands-on work
* To enhance the bonds and solidarity between the volunteers and Israelis.
* To intensify the Jewish identity of Jewish youth living in the Diaspora.
* To develop mutual understanding and to enrich personal and cultural values through the dynamics of Israeli and volunteer participants working together
