Bronfman Scholarship The Bronfman Fellowship Applications for the 2025 fellowship are due December 2, 2024, and are available online at bronfman.org. The scholarship selects 26 promising North American teenagers for a free, intellectually challenging year of study, beginning with a seminar that includes a trip to Israel and the United States between their junior and senior years of high school, followed by monthly virtual events and two U.S. seminars. Jewish high school students in the U.S. and Canada who will be in 11th grade in the fall of 2024 are eligible to apply. The scholarship is a program for Jews of all backgrounds; no prior Jewish education is required. The program educates and inspires exceptional young Jews from diverse backgrounds who demonstrate the ability to be cultural creators, deep thinkers, moral voices, and community builders. The nonprofit scholarship was founded by Edgar M. Bronfman, former CEO of Seagram Company Ltd. and a visionary Jewish philanthropist. “My father, Edgar M. Bronfman, had great faith in the ability of young people to see the world not just as it is, but as it should be,” said Adam R. Bronfman, president of the Samuel Bronfman Foundation. “He believed that young people inspired by their Judaism were best prepared both to shape the Jewish Renaissance and to improve the world.” The fellowship is an opportunity for dynamic personal and intellectual growth. Alumni include Jewish leaders who founded Keshet, Sefaria, and YidLife Crisis, and hold leadership positions at the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America, the Jewish Women's Archives, the Central Synagogue, and Hillel International, to name a few. Amitei Bronfman's alumni include State Department of Justice lawyers, renowned journalists, successful film directors, political advisers to Knesset members, members of elite IDF units, and university professors. Our mission The Bronfman Fellowship nurtures intellectually curious young Jews from Israel and North America to build a more dynamic future. Graduates embody Mr. Bronfman’s vision of young people enriched and inspired by Judaism who are prepared to contribute not only to Jewish life but to a better world. Our vision We envision a future that includes people who see the world through a lens larger than their own and value Jewish learning as a tool for discovery, creativity, andchange.
