“I think the reason the Greek bus is so awesome is that we're already social creatures from the start. To be in a fraternity or sorority, you generally have to be somewhat comfortable meeting new people, which drew me to the Greek option. Also, since we didn't come from the same school, no one had any preconceived notions of what the other kids would be like, which led us to become much better friends than my friends who went on my school’s bus. I wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING.” –Winter 2009 student

• Are you interested in meeting new people while you explore Israel, but want to at least have something in common beyond being Jewish?
• Do you want to have the most incredible experience of your life, supported by people from a similar social background?
• Would you like to connect with other Jewish students in your fraternity or sorority across the country?

This special Taglit-Birthright Israel trip, exclusively for fraternity and sorority students from across the country, is an opportunity to learn all about Israel from its history thousands of years ago right up until today, meet and mix with Israeli soldiers you own age, and connect with other Greek students at different schools all around America and Canada. Experience Israel, form bonds with people in your own and different Greek-letter organizations, and discover things about your identity that you never would have imagined.

Greeks Rush Israel includes all of the adventures and site visits of a normal Hillel campus trip, with extra private events, concerts and parties thrown in. All students in North American Interfraternity Council and National Panhellenic Conference-recognized Greek organizations are welcome to apply.
