If the King James Version of the bible crafted your preconceived notions of Israel, then thou shalt needeth a new perspective. Volunteer opportunities in Israel never fail to challenge ideas and offer the most unexpected experiences. With almost one third of all Israelis being active volunteers, voluntarism is the steady constant that proclaims the beautiful side of Israeli society. It seems that the country has taken to heart the question posed by a Jewish sage long ago: "If I look out for myself only, what kind of a person am I?" Make this year’s memories as a volunteer in Israel and next year’s #TBT’s your program highlights.

A Guide to Volunteering Abroad in Israel
Locations
The mingling of old and new that transpires in Israel will have you in a perpetual time warp. Stepping into another city, or just crossing the street, can transport you to an entirely different era. To help you decipher the best fit for your volunteer experience, have a looksee at this rundown of the most popular locations to volunteer abroad in Israel:
Jerusalem serves many believers as the finish line to a pilgrimage, but no matter what your dogmas, when you volunteer in Jerusalem, your experience may just be the pilgrimage itself. Some of the world’s oldest history is alive and on display in, wait for it… the Old City. Also, be sure to take a stroll through a souk and be exhilarated by the sensory overload experience you have to see (and smell) to believe.
Tel Aviv is Israel’s modern, cosmopolitan city where you might find more people wearing skinny jeans than thawbs. A sun-bronzed strip of coastline serves as an international mecca for foodies and coffee snobs where life is lived to the fullest. Volunteers will never be caught bored with a profusion of contemporary galleries, cafes, and blissful beaches to be explored. The historic part of the city, Jaffa (Yafo), is famous for being the backdrop of many biblical stories, but the city's real attraction is the local lifestyle.
Eilat is located at the southernmost tip of Israel and is an unashamed resort town. Its beaches are noted for their pristine waters that fashion dream conditions for snorkeling and diving. Dolphin Reef, Coral Beach Nature Reserve, and Coral World Underwater Observatory Marine Park offer all the fun in the sun you can handle on your days off. If traveling to the Middle East to volunteer makes you a little uneasy, Eilat will be there to hold your hand and keep you safe through it all. What better place to get your feet wet than in the Red Sea (insert Moses impression here).
