Heled - Educational Programs

Heled Educational Affiliates is an amuta or organization that works to develop enrichment programs relating to Judaism and Jewish culture, and introduce them into Israeli schools. Heled seeks to reinforce Jewish identity among children and adolescents, through positive approaches that use innovative, experiential teaching methods. Our programs emphasize the creation of a sense of belonging and familiarity with Jewish heritage and Judaism, through encounters with Jewish values and texts. Heled’s approach is pluralistic, and its materials are designed to reflect current, relevant issues. Heled’s programs are run under the supervision of the Ministry of Education and Culture, and every year reach hundreds of schools and teachers and thousands of students throughout the country.
