                  Dear Mort,

                  In January, the New Israel Fund partnered with the Union of Progressive Zionists to coordinate our first Taglit birthright-Israel trip: "Discover Israel: Peace, Pluralism, and Social Justice." Following on this success, we are happy to announce that registration has begun for two upcoming NIF-sponsored summer trips. 

                  The first trip is scheduled for May 19th-May 30th and is eligible for those between the ages 18-26. We will have a second trip in July that is exclusively for ages 22-26. Exact dates for this trip will be determined after registration. 

                  If you, your family, or your friends are between the ages of 18-26 and have not traveled to Israel on a peer group trip, seize this opportunity for a FREE 10 day trip to Israel! Visit www.israelexperts.com to sign up today! Space is limited, and all the slots generally fill up within two weeks. 

                  "Peace, Pluralism, and Social Justice," is the only birthright option that explores Israel from a progressive perspective, focusing on both domestic social and political issues as well as larger questions of a just and lasting peace for Jews and Arabs both. In addition to visiting all major sites and cities, the trip includes fascinating encounters with Israeli activists and non-government organizations working for minority rights, environmental justice, gender equality, religious pluralism, and peace in Israel and Palestine. 

                  To learn more about this amazing experience check out the following Jerusalem Post article. Please direct any questions to Ben Mendelsohn, ben at nif.org or 212-613-4400.
