Apply Now for the Stephen Muss Impact Fellowship for the Alexander Muss High School in Israel

Students entering their sophomore and junior years of high school are invited to apply for the Stephen Muss Impact Fellowship, a program that offers $15,000 scholarships to Alexander Muss High School in Israel (AMHSI). The meaningful experience, taking place August 22-December 21, 2023, offers Jewish students living in Miami-Dade County the chance to spend a semester living and learning in Israel. Made possible by Stephen Muss and the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, AMHSI is the only pluralistic, college prep, fully accredited program in which high school students study abroad together in Israel for a semester. Fellows return home ready to take their place as Jewish changemakers and ambassadors for Israel and the Jewish people. Applications are still being accepted and can be accessed here.
