Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is the deposit for?
Due to the limited number of spots on each trip, we need to ensure that all chosen participants will show up. When an applicant pays the $360* USD deposit, this lets us know that you're serious about traveling with Birthright Israel and covers any fees that we might incur in the event of a late cancellation. It also helps guarantee that you follow Birthright Israel safety and behavior standards. In extreme cases in which participants violate these guidelines, their deposit may be confiscated. *As of September 6, 2023 the deposit amount for your Birthright Israel application will increase to $360 USD. The non-refundable processing fee will be $25.
+ Can I make a donation in support of Birthright Israel?
Absolutely. There is no gift too small to make a difference. The future of the Jewish people is a shared responsibility, and every dollar counts and contributes to a stronger future for us all. To make a donation in support of Birthright Israel, please click here.
+ This gift sounds too good to be true. What’s the catch?
There's no catch. You are only responsible for a $360* USD deposit - which you can kindly donate to support future Birthright Israel educational activities or request a refund after successfully completing the program.
+ What if I’m not sure of my schedule?
If you're not sure what trip dates work for you yet, don't worry! You should still complete the entire application. It's commitment free and you can change your trip choices at any time. Click here to finish your application.

The experience I had with Israel Free Spirit was empowering beyond words and really connected me with both Judaism and Israel. Friends turned into family on this trip and I am so thankful to have been chosen to travel to Israel and discover its beauty!

Talia Berk

I went on Birthright expecting just a free trip to Israel. What I got was the experience of a lifetime. I met lifelong friends. I saw sights I could have only dreamed of. I cultivated my Jewish heritage beyond what I thought was possible. I laughed, learned, cried, sang, jumped for joy, and stood speechless in amazement. I will never forget my time in Israel. Thank you Israel Free Spirit.

Greg Marinelli

I loved getting to know all eight of the Israeli soldiers on a personal level and to see that they are just like us! Going to the Western Wall was my favorite part of the trip; it was truly an amazing feeling to go there on Shabbat. Thank you Israel Free Spirit for the amazing hospitality and welcoming to our Homeland.

Jeff Rebackoff

Where I was growing up, there weren't other Jews to be in a community with...but now I feel like I have a Jewish family with the 48 new friends from my Birthright trip and I thank you for that.
