Students at Midreshet Moriah have the unique opportunity of volunteering at Shaarei Tzedek Medical Center and at Hadassah Hospital, as well as a wide range of organizations and projects in Yerushalayim. Some of these girls plan to study to be doctors, nurses or work in other fields related to medicine. Others see it as a fun and interesting opportunity that gives them great experience.

The goals of our program: To learn what the true essence of chesed is by actually doing it; to provide you an opportunity to give of yourself without any expectations in return; and to inspire you to want to continue doing chesed long after you have completed your year. It is for this reason that we also involve you in group chesed activities throughout the year, such as the Chanukkah Carnival we ran for children from Shalva;  raising money, buying gifts, and throwing bridal showers for brides from Gush Katif; picking and packaging fruit and vegetables for the needy; and more.

To ensure that everything is running smoothly and that you are satisfied with your placement, the Volunteer Coordinator will explain all of our options, accept requests, place the students and follow up throught the year.
