IISP Program Overview
The Israel Incentive Savings Program (IISP) enables students to receive up to $3,300.00 towards an approved organized/educational trip to Israel, such as the “NFTY in Israel” trips through NFTY – the youth arm of the Reform movement.
IISP is a joint partnership program with our Families, the Jewish Community Board of Akron (JCBA), and Temple Israel, which is funded by the Irving J. & Ruth B. Olson Israel Scholarship Fund at the JCBA. Families contribute $130 per year for up to seven years, or make a single one-time payment of up to $790.
Children may initially be enrolled in grades 3 – 7, pay through ninth grade, and may then use the IISP funds after completing tenth grade, and up until age 26, for an approved Israel trip.
More details are in the IISP brochure. Call the Temple office for a brochure and more details – 330-762-8617. Enrollment and payments are due by January 15th each year. Please contact the JCBA for specific information on the mechanics of IISP 330-869-2424.
IISP can defray a major portion of NFTY in Israel trips.
