Buckeyes for Israel

Buckeyes for Israel is a new organization at Ohio State. We give students the opportunity to meet America's most influential politicians, community leaders, and to network with one another. As a bipartisan organization, we encourage our members to get involved with either major party, volunteering for political campaigns and spreading the pro-Israel message on and off campus.

On campus, we host political forums with members of congress and other elected officials from across Ohio and the country. A major focus this year is our Ohio Israel Business Forum, where we bring Ohio business executives to campus to talk about their experiences and the benefits students can get from getting involved with Israel. We provide networking opportunities for these students, so that they can make business contacts, and apply for internships and jobs. We also provide exclusive opportunities for students to travel to political conferences across the country, to lobby their members of congress, and to meet other politically-involved students. We believe that Israel is an issue that all can relate to, and endeavor to reach out to all students interested in getting involved with the US-Israel alliance. Israel is certainly not just a Jewish issue. We reach out to members of the Christian and African American campus community.
