Gesher Information

No outside force has ever succeeded in destroying the Jewish people. Yet what has always threatened the existence of our People is the challenge of internal unity. Today, more than ever, we are confronted with a choice: embrace each other and work together despite our differences or resort to infighting, bickering and intolerance which imperils our security. We must work together in order to create a vibrant, diverse and cohesive Jewish People. Gesher works towards building a cohesive society in Israel. Through innovative programming, Gesher lays the foundation to build a society based on dialogue, mutual respect and understanding. Gesher works with youth, the IDF, societal leaders and opinion shapers and the public at large to create a society in Israel where secular, religious and Haredi Jews can live together side-by-side. 30K Participants per year in Gesher Programming 93% of participants report Gesher significantly altered their views 100 Leaders per year go through the Gesher Leadership Institute
