Summer of Impact: An Activist's Adventure
The PANIM Institute of BBYO offers a variety of travel options through the Summer of Impact program that will take you, and your leadership, to new heights. The two week trips take place in Boston, Washington, DC, and the American Southwest, and while each program is unique to their locality, they all focus on creating a community of leaders by being actively engaged in advocacy and hands-on service. The Summer of Impact trips can all be paired with traditional BBYO summer travel programs for the summer of a lifetime. Take advantage of the PANIM Institute of BBYO’s unparalleled opportunities with a community of Jewish teens who will become your lifelong friends.
