The Ariel Project documentary series "Am Israel Chai," supported by RJCF for nearly two years, is growing rapidly. Many in the Jewish community view its message as vital — and want to help.
“Am Israel Chai” is more than a documentary. It is a declaration: The Jewish People Live.

Club Z Launches Boston chapter, thanks in part to RJCF Grant Club Z: Zionism for Teens has successfully launched its chapter in Boston! After a well-attended Ignite Event/Info session in May and a fun Ice Cream Social in September, over 24 teens have already enrolled in our Basic Training program — with more sign-ups expected. Feedback from Club Z Teens after their first educational session, which covered the subject of Jewish Peoplehood, was overwhelmingly positive. The Club Z community is looking forward to an amazing year filled with impactful learning sessions, inspiring speakers, and meaningful social & community events. If you would like to find out more about Club Z, please email at boston@clubz.org

The 17th Annual Boston-Sderot Summer Camp opened its doors to 80 children of Sderot this summer. We reunited for another successful session of Camp Boston Sderot filled with laughter, learning, and many lasting memories. From the moment the bus pulled in through the gates, there was no doubt this year's camp would be something special. Our incredible group of counselors, made up of three young Americans and ten Israelis, joined as a team to make all 50 campers feel loved and included. It was truly inspiring to see our Israeli counselors, who grew up in the camp themselves, step confidently into their roles as leaders, modeling teamwork, compassion, and dedication for the younger participants.
