STUDENTS AND YOUTH CLUB

 

The club, established in 1989, unites about 150 young people at the age from 18 to 25 (high school and university students). The members of the club are active in organizational, social and charitable activities. Thus, the young people assist in organizing summer and winter camps, transfer their knowledge to the younger generations, prepare and celebrate Jewish holidays etc.

The club keeps in touch with all youth and students organizations of Lithuania, often invites them to various events. Close communication and cooperation is maintained with the young people of Kaunas, Šiauliai, Panevėžys and Klaipėda communities. Moreover the Baltic and other international seminars, summer and winter camps build bridges between our youth and the people from many other cities and countries.

The children volunteer in helping the elderly and the physically handicapped.

Great attention is provided towards leisure activities: joint goings to theatres, exhibitions, excursions etc. There are organized competitions in “Brain-Ring” game among the representatives of various communities on a very regular basis.  

Annually the club organizes the days of Culture and Sports, the main aim of which is to widen the horizons of youth as well as to attract them to sports activities. 

The club strives to help young people in maximum possible fulfilment in the intellectual and artistic spheres, as well as assists them in physical and spiritual development.   

At present time the Centre offers a wide variety of programmes: 
English language courses;
Hebrew language courses;
Jewish Folk Dance courses;
Sports activities (swimming pool, gym, football, basketball, pool etc.).


There are regular lectures and seminars on various topics, round tables, disputes, and meetings with interesting people in the club. Thus, for example, in order to help orient young people in their first steps of grown-up lives on the labor market there is a sequence of encounters with specialists in employment assistance.   
The aim of the club is attracting youth to Jewish culture, popularizing Jewish art and traditions, and most importantly, creating favorable conditions for close and friendly relationships.
