Mayanot’s curriculum is revolutionary, encompassing both the broad intellectual and spiritual dimensions of Jewish learning.

At Mayanot, students are empowered with the confidence and skills to become leaders in their own right to strengthen the local Jewish community, defend Israel and contribute to the broader society.

The Mayanot Benevolent Fund supports food security and other expenses for people in need throughout Israel. Many Mayanot students are financially independent and are paying their own way for basic living costs. The Mayanot Benevolent Fund assists students who are financially challenged and unable to pay full tuition to cover basic living costs such as food and board.
