NETHERLANDS
Bnei Akiva Holland has extensive activities to strengthen and deepen the connection with Am Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael and Torat Yisrael.
Bnei Akiva Holland is not just a youth movement but a very significant institution in the local Orthodox and traditional community. Today they have about 200 members.
The main branch is in Amsterdam and it is sending arms to the rest of the country. They have a weekly peula on Shabbat with 50-100 participants, weekends and Machanot. The activities are led by Madrichim aged 17-22.
Most of the bogrim are going to Hachshara programs in Israel before or during the years of Hadracha. We are proud to be one of the Snifim with one of the highest Aliyah rates in Europe at the end of the Hadracha term.
