here with the CEO and founder of a Kiva

we run trips the reason that we're
making this live feed is because we run
trips and we have a trip coming up in a
week and the price is right the trip is
awesome and we have a few more slots so

that comes to New York City and you
could live in California we just had a
girl home California sign up you could
live in Canada wherever you live as long
as you're between the ages of eighteen
to thirty and you'd like to learn and
grow in Judaism and you want to explore
you want to explore New York and New
Jersey a little bit and you want to
hangar the class goes for a week so you
get all that and that's called the
Activa stateside trip it's a it's a
pilot trip I've done a lot of Israel
trips before we've done many many Israel
trips and just come back from a Poland
I'm sorry from a Spain England trip
usually we do Poland so we do Poland
between Poland and March we did Spain
England we're doing Israel in
and August but this is a brand-new trip
and if you're listening if you're
watching this video and you know
somebody who could really use a burst of
inspiration a little bit of a break you
know hanging with the clients goes and
all their musical friends sabaton with
us and they live somewhere and they
can't normally afford to go and maybe
it's a college that has a break right
now before College begins I know a lot
of the students the college already
begins early so they can't come but for
some students they have a long January
off so the dates are from the 8th until
the 15th January 8th which is next
Monday yeah right this coming Monday
Monday to Monday Monday to Monday and
here's how it works okay first of all
the price know for the price otherwise
the prices be the dramatic reveal before
the price this is what we're gonna be
doing we're gonna be coming to New York
you're gonna fly here from whatever you
happen to live in North America and
we're gonna do everything that New
Yorkers never do because they live here
right so there were Damon yeah good so
we're gonna really like start you off by
we're going to be visiting the Freedom
Tower we're going like you know Ground
Zero very memorial yeah New York huge
when when visiting New York if you
haven't visited the Freedom Tower you
haven't been to New York say so and then
the Statue of Liberty we're going to be
going to the famous met Metropolitan
Museum all right I love the met by the
way I love art and the Met is one of the
most important museums on the planet and
could you believe a lot of people they
live in the tri-state area and they
never made the trip to the Met so
besides great art you see than Gulf time
you'll see Monet and MANET and Rembrandt
and you know some Picasso and Chagall
but there's a lot of
stuff there there are mummies and I
wrote lipsticks and it's just a very
very important museum yeah there so that
will speak to like your cultural
intellectual side and then we have more
of like an active type of sports so
we're gonna be going rock climbing we're
going skiing like scooter we're going
skiing yes and New York has to be offers
some of the best slopes in the States
I think Colorado and yes yeah yeah I
mean it's amazing I know this weekend
was supposed to be cold but it is
supposed to warm up by Monday so by
Monday you come here you don't get that
crazy cold temperature but instead by
the time you fly in you're gonna be able
to warm up a little bit in New York warm
so it won't be zero degrees it may be 30
degrees or 35 degrees perfect skin
weather perfect being weather and we're
supposed to have a snow storm
so these slopes should be perfect for
UNC uh right yeah it's gonna be very
very cold during the snowstorm which
means that those folks will be very
slippery and you're just gonna be on
really fast and slow so yes so and then
on top of that like one of the things
that we find people really really really
enjoy is they're gonna be hanging out
with every class go and be engaged with
other you know speakers who can
introduce you to Judaism and why it
means so so much to us why we've held on
to these traditions for thousands
exactly so use the story I want a lot of
trips and it's great to visit Israel
Israel as my my dream my heart my soul
it's important to visit Poland as well
because you know if you don't if you
haven't seen it and experienced at least
where it took place
it never really hits home at least for
me it didn't these are all very
important but I think that you know in
in our hearts or in our the shamans and
ourselves we are yearning to feel
connected to eternity to the Creator to
the creation and Judaism and Jewish
people stand for something so incredibly
important and this trip will be an
opportunity to explore that kind of a
these kind of questions and we're going
to be giving different talks and
lectures through
the week sub sized activities we're
going to explore meaning and reason and
depth and some of it will be very
intellectual some of it will tug at your
heartstrings and some of its going to be
musical some people are musical people
here right yes exactly but I'm having a
lot of different like jam sessions so
get ready for that as well and so we
went over the who we have the college
students 18 to 30 young professionals as
well we have the where we're gonna be in
New York we have the what and now we
really need to break down the house how

works
yes so if you're wondering at the end of
the day like I know someone who this
would be perfect for it I just want to
be able to like explain to them
everything how much where the counters
are gonna cost so the flights are
covered up to five hundred dollars so
you don't have to worry about that
everything else is gonna be covered
while you're here there's one thing
we're doing which the Broadway show
right so Broadway you're gonna have to
bring some money because you know I
don't know where do you want to go you
may not want to go to Broadway so you're
bringing money for a show it was a
thirty forty fifty Bob night and but all
the entries
is this skiing the transportation
picking you up from the airport bringing
you back to the airport and all the
restaurants and all the food and all
that stuff is gonna be covered it's an
incredible incredible trip and
incredible deal and we're gonna tell you
how much this entire trip which includes
your plane ticket and includes the the
flight and then it includes the
transportation the entrance feed the the
fees the food the lodging everything is
covered and here's the great reveal how
much for the akima stateside trip $99 it
doesn't get it really will never get
better than 99 bucks yeah 911 but that
includes the plane ticket right $99 so
we were just talking to like elements
got told us that she spent more on
dinner on New Year's Eve so the whole
week in New York for $99 including
touring and gonna make wonderful friends
it's an incredible opportunity $99 if
you have the time great if you don't
have the time make the time because it's
worth it the trip itself has a value of
well over a thousand bucks and this is
for $99 why are we doing this well first
off we have very very generous donors
this is a part of the Ola me umbrella
and all of me has very very generous
donors who help students get Jewish
experiences they're the ones who cover
the Spain Spain England trip so they've
been gracious enough to give us this
huge grant for the stateside trip so
that's why it was so cheap and we are
looking to really inspire and I live to
inspire and to connect I myself have 11
little children some of them are not so
little anymore
but 11 children I know how important it
is to keep that next generation of
Jewish people going and I just think
this is a great opportunity so even if
you've been to Israel even if you you
know you've been to New York last month
hey my mom's coming again that may
experience it with us
and that is like another point also we
made if someone comes on the state side
trip and they're interested in
potentially going to Israel or
potentially going to Poland they they
could meet us right like get to know us
establish a connection and it would
probably be easier for them to do
absolutely yeah we give preferential
treatment and all of our other trips to
those who have been on previous trips
so once you've been on a Makita
stateside so then you get first dibs for
all the next I Cuba trips so you're
coming to New York you're touring you're
going to restaurants you're eating
you're shopping you're skiing you're
visiting historic places you're going to
museums fine arts you're gonna meet the
Jewish community 99 bucks I'm a top of
all of that you then become first in
line for the next trips that we do and
it's just what can I say it's it's a
no-brainer we have six slots left and I
predict that in the end of this video
and certainly for the people who watch
this video they're gonna get excited
about it they'll send the link to their
friends and they'll say yeah like
Cabella lets get ya though you gotta get
this going because once we fill up we
got a grant for 16 students and that's
it so once that great once those 16
slots are filled that's finished we have
six slots left we are now recruiting and
yeah we we would love to meet you I'd
love to meet my wife my kids we all love
to meet you and this is your opportunity
to come to New York for $99 that's all
okay thanks so we're gonna leave you off
with a big Shalom and we hope to see you
in New York right click on that on Kiva
