Chug Aliyah
Baltimore Chug Aliyah is for those who are considering aliyah in the long term or already planning for aliyah. Any Jew from with an interest in aliyah, no matter how tentative, is welcome to attend meetings, participate in the online group, and sign up for an Ulpan class.
Baltimore Zionist District organizes informational meetings on a variety of aliyah topics with the Jewish Agency and Nefesh B'Nefesh for the Baltimore community.
Our Yahoo group, as well as our Baltimore Chug Aliyah Facebook page, provides a way for members to talk to each other, to ask questions of one another, to share articles and websites about topics related to making aliyah and to get chizuk (strength) from one another.
