Miami and Yerucham Diller Teen Fellows Come Together

The ties between Jewish teens in Miami and Yerucham were strengthened when the Yerucham Diller Teen Fellows spent a week exploring the Jewish community with their Miami counterparts. During the Mifgash (encounter), the Fellows learned about their similarities and differences as people, Jews and leaders. Miami Diller Teen Fellow Abby Levin said, “Overall, the Mifgash was an amazing experience, but by far, the best part was getting to know all of the teens from Yerucham and forming closer bonds with everyone in the Miami-Yerucham Partnership.” Click here to learn more about Diller Teen Fellows and to apply for Cohort 5 of Diller Miami (applications due May 15, 2017).
