Founded in 2013, KAHAL is a study-abroad organization dedicated to strengthening the community of Jewish college students who want to expand their prospects by studying overseas. Before the pandemic struck, the nonprofit felt it was well positioned for the future, describing itself as “the premier organization for Jewish study abroad students around the world, helping thousands immerse themselves in Jewish life in 57 countries and 127 cities.”
