Support a remarkable Jewish educational experience for remarkable Jewish women.
While fees and tuition provide the basis for Amudim's financial well-being, supplemental donations are necessary to enable all worthy candidates access to this wonderful educational opportunity.
We are no longer accepting donations on this campaign, but there are other ways for you to support us today!
In 2021 Amudim, a young Midrasha for bright and highly motivated women, joined Shir Hadash Institutions, an established Jerusalem organization dedicated to celebrating Torah, the Jewish people and the Land of Israel. All donations made to Shir Hadash via this site will be earmarked exclusively for Amudim purposes, first and foremost to provide scholarship funds for worthy but financially challenged candidates, as well as to enable Amudim to grow its impact on the Jewish world in general.
And what is the Amudim Midrasha?
In a world which allows for unprecedented encounters and exchange on a global scale, Amudim is a new kind of Shana ba-Aretz experience that opens exciting intellectual and spiritual horizons by offering:
- An innovative style which empowers each student to bring her own voice to Torah learning.
- Seamless harmonization of traditional and modern scholarship.
- A derekh ha-limmud, the necessary toolbox for lifelong independent Torah study.
- The Land of Israel itself as a Beit Midrash, with classes regularly taking place off-campus—at the Bible Lands Museum, University campus, the National Library and in the Old City.
- Special weekly seminars which introduce students to the eclectic world of Jewish scholarship that exists exclusively in Israel.
- Honest conversation about essential and existential issues such as the existence of God, free will, the afterlife, the problem of evil and suffering, the composition of Torah texts, and the interaction between Judaism and modern values and ethics.
- One-of-a-kind tiyulim, internships, and extracurriculars that bring the values of Amudim to life.
