The YEHUDI Poland 2024 Fellowship Trip
The magnitude of the Holocaust, its unimaginable horror and loss, is something that defies full comprehension through text or testimony alone. Now, you have the opportunity to step into Jewish history as you explore what was known as the crucible of the Jewish world for centuries—Poland.
For over a thousand years, Poland was a vibrant epicenter of Jewish life, a dynamic nerve center that radiated rich Jewish culture and philosophy. Yet the Holocaust led to the devastating destruction of 90% of Poland’s Jewish population, shattering an irreplaceable world.
Join us on this emotional journey into the heart of Jewish history in Poland. Feel the echoes of the past as you walk the streets that once bustled with Jewish thought, culture, and tradition. This is not just a trip, but a powerful, personal experience of connection, remembrance, and resolve. It’s an opportunity to understand our history, honor the memory of those we lost, and carry forward the spirit of a beautiful world that once was.

Past trips
Joining this community has been life-changing for me.
“As someone who had little knowledge of Judaism before, I now see it as something beautiful and positive. The social aspect was what drew me in at first, but the meaningful experiences and learning opportunities with the mentors have made me feel like I’ve found a second family.”
They have truly become like family to me.
“I can’t imagine where I would be without this community. As an international student without family in the area, I would have been completely alone if not for the welcoming and supportive environment provided by Yehudi . I am so grateful for the connections and growth I have experienced here.”
