The heart and soul of Limmud Festival lies within its dedicated volunteers, whose passion and commitment bring this remarkable event to life. There are those who give an hour or two throughout Festival, and there are those who make up the Limmud Festival team who work for several months to plan and deliver Festival. Every contribution plays an integral role in crafting an immersive and vibrant atmosphere that is what makes Limmud Festival so unique.

An Unparalleled Jewish experience, it’s unbelievable.
A pioneering festival of Jewish learning.
Limmud is igniting Jewish conversations, including about Israel, in over 80 communities and 40 countries on six continents. For The Jewish Agency for Israel, Limmud is a valued partner in these efforts.
There should be a Limmud in every country where there are Jews.
Unlike other organizations, when you volunteer with Limmud you really have a chance to have an impact on others and on the community, to try new things and to lead. At Limmud, leadership is not about connections or money it’s about rolling up your sleeves and getting the work done.
Limmud provides both a pathway for its volunteers to experience and embrace Jewish community. The Limmud phenomenon serves as a light that illuminates the potential of Jewish learning for Jewish engagement at its finest.
