With tremendous enthusiasm, energy and in high spirits nearly 300 AMIT students, teachers, principals, staff, and supporters joined together at Friday’s Jerusalem Marathon in support of AMIT’s Frisch Beit Hayeled, a foster home which serves 120 children ages 4-14 who need a warm and loving safe refuge.

In January of last year, Daniella Moffson, a 21-year-old Manhattan native and Barnard College student who spent her high-school gap-year in 2013 volunteering at a Jerusalem shelter for severely neglected children, died as she lived: giving.

Last week, the 10th grade students from AMIT Yeshivat Netivot Dror in Or Akiva went on an educational hike, following the footsteps of King Saul on Mt. Gilboa.

At AMIT Gwen Straus Society and Law track in Kfar Batya, Ra’anana, Mishloach Manot will be sent to every graduate serving in the army.
