Hamagshimim is a dynamic Israel-Zionist presence on college and university campuses and in communities nationwide. Hamagshimim is a pluralistic, non-partisan movement which gives students the opportunity to explore and strengthen their personal ties with Israel.

Hamagshimim's goal is to build Zionist and Jewish identity by emphasizing the centrality of Israel in the lives of all Jews and by emphasizing Aliyah as the natural fulfillment of that sense of identity.
