This coming academic year, Hausner is excited to host the Jewish Agency for Israel's Shinshinim program for the very first time! Other Jewish day schools in the Bay Area have significantly benefited from their participation in the program. Shinshinim are Israeli high school graduates who choose to defer their military service for a year and serve as cultural ambassadors abroad. They bring their passion for Israel, share their experiences, and build lasting connections with Jewish communities worldwide.

We are looking for host families to welcome Shira and Ziv, two inspiring Shinshinim, into their homes. This is a fantastic chance to showcase the warmth, kindness, and hospitality that define the Hausner community.
