Nurturing Jewish Life at Israel's Premier Technical Institute in Haifa
A remarkable Jewish community is flourishing in the heart of Technion in Haifa, Israel's leading technical university.

"Finding JLIC at Technion changed everything for me. In the midst of challenging studies, I discovered not just a Jewish community, but a second family." — Technion Student

From Rabbi Evan and Tova Levine:
Every day, we witness the extraordinary potential of this community. These students and young professionals aren't just building the technological future of Israel—they're forging a vibrant Jewish future as well. The demands of Technion academics are intense, yet our students remain committed to growing Jewishly. They come from dozens of countries, speaking different languages, but find common ground in Jewish learning and celebration. Your generous support allows us to continue serving this community in 2025-2026 and to grow it for the future.
Your partnership makes it possible for us to meet these remarkable students and young professionals where they are—creating Jewish experiences that complement rather than compete with their academic commitments. Together, we're nurturing not just engineers and scientists, but Jewish leaders."
