"For me, Migdal Oz is a place that will always be a warm and welcoming home, no matter where in life I find myself.”

“This building–this Beit Midrash–is filled with a love for Torah and a love for Hakadosh Baruch Hu. The dancing that happens in the Beit Midrash, in the place that we learn, it just uplifts everything that we do here. All the learning is just for the sake of growing and of getting closer to Hashem.”

“My friends who were with me in Migdal Oz are still my friends today… just being my family, and being the people I’m still close with–they were the bridesmaids at my wedding. I see myself continuing to be friends with them for a very long time.”

“Because I have so many Israeli friends and I’m surrounded by Israelis all the time, I get to know Israel from a different perspective. I get to understand where Israelis are coming from and how the country works from a social perspective. Hopefully this will help me in the future when I join the Israeli community myself.”

“Migdal Oz is such a unique place in so many ways–from learning in Hebrew with Israelis, to the warm community, to the amazing classes taught by the biggest names of the Modern Orthodox world. I wouldn’t be able to find this experience anywhere else.”

“The Bnot Chul program really becomes your family: the staff care for you like parents and your friends are as close to you as sisters. When you’re in an environment that comfortable it becomes much easier to be yourself and just focus on growth.”
