IISP Program Overview

The Israel Incentive Savings Program (IISP) enables students to receive up to a $3,300 payment 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 among 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 just $130 per year for up to seven years, or they may make a single one time payment of up to $790.  Children may be initially 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.  

Many more details are contained in our IISP brochure, call for yours 330-762-8617.   click for IISP Registration Form.   Enrollment, and payments each year, are due by January 15th.
