When you submit the Eco-Israel application be sure to check with MASA  to see if you qualify for a grant to support your participation in Eco-Israel.  Registering through MASA automatically begins the process for receiving funds to support your participation in Eco-Israel.  If you want to look for other scholarships, there is a listing of resources on the MASA website.  Eco-Israel students have been successful finding funds through local Jewish organizations such as synagogues and Federations.
