About the program
A powerful 7-day volunteer program to Israel created for experienced adults who want to give back, connect, and be there when it matters most.
Be part of Israel’s national volunteering effort while travelling with a supportive group of like-minded Australians. This program combines hands-on volunteering, cultural experiences, and meaningful connection - all in a safe, structured environment.
Program requirement: Ages 50–70
Registration closes as soon as the program reaches full capacity.
What are the costs involved?
There is a non-refundable $50 USD registration fee and a $300 USD program fee.

Who is eligible to join this trip?
If you’re Jewish and fit within the age range of 50-70, you’re eligible - whether this is your first visit to Israel or not.
Please note: If you have previously participated in a Birthright Israel Volunteer program and participated in a group flight or received a flight subsidy reimbursement, you may not be eligible.

What kind of volunteering will I be doing?
You’ll engage in impactful, hands-on projects such as:
Assisting families and communities in need
Helping with agricultural work on farms
Supporting rebuilding efforts at community centres and public spaces
Along the way, you’ll meet like-minded people, experience the real Israel, and make a genuine difference.
Can I have a private room?
Yes. Private room upgrades are available for an additional fee.
Do I need to arrange my own insurance?
Basic health insurance is included for the program dates while you are in Israel.
Please note: This insurance does not cover pre-existing conditions and only applies once you land in Israel. We highly recommend purchasing a full travel insurance policy for comprehensive coverage.
Will there be free time?

Participant feedback
The experience was truely unforgettable
Aardvark Israel has helped shape and strengthen my Jewish and Israeli Identity.
I was able to live like a local and experience the ins and outs of Israeli culture with so many unique experiences.
The diversity of the programming allowed me to experience it all the tiyulim, the classes, the travelling and of course the Shabbatons.

My time with birthright was nothing short of incredible, it's curated to help create a sense of closeness to your group, our people and our land. The memories, feelings and connections I was able to forge with the help of birthright have been life changing.
