Skyler Clark

Hi! I’m Skyler Clark and I’m currently on a gap year program called Bina Mechina in south Tel Aviv! The program I am on is designed for both pre-college Americans and international participants, and pre-army Israeli teens. It’s a secular yeshiva that aims to strengthen the south Tel Aviv area including working with the refugee community that lives here. Bina also aims to teach Israeli youths about Judaism from a secular standpoint and strengthen the relationship between Israeli citizens and diaspora Jews living in other countries around the world! It’s a really important and amazing program and I have really been loving my time here on Bina. It’s been incredible to meet and learn with so many Israelis my same age and working with the children of asylum seekers in the neighborhood.  Bina collects thousands of shekels every year to create scholarship funds for both Israeli and non-Israeli participants to pay for their tuitions at Bina.

 

I was fortunate enough to earn the Wynne Scholarship Fund through Temple Sinai which has helped me to afford being on this amazing program.

Thank you Temples Sinai and the Wynne Family!

Shalom!
