Global Ambassador Application: Fall 2025

As a Global Ambassador, your main goal will be to build community among Jewish study abroad students in your host city. You will be responsible for connecting study abroad students to each other, hosting gatherings for students, attending and connecting students to local community events and keeping students informed on local happenings through your KAHAL WhatsApp group.

As part of the Global Ambassadors program, you will connect with other college students studying in your host city, develop professional skills, and gain opportunities to connect with the larger global Jewish community while you study abroad.

Program supervisors and fellow cohort members will help guide your experience. You will receive a $200 stipend for completing your goals. You will also receive a program budget to help engage students abroad.

IMPORTANT: Applicants going abroad to Amsterdam, Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Copenhagen, Dublin, Florence, London, Madrid, Paris, Prague, Rome, or Sydney will be prioritized. If your destination city is not listed, we still encourage you to apply.

Please apply by July 15, 2025 and reach out to Raya Benus to check in on your application status or if you have any questions.
