Amudim teaches a Torat Hayim and Torat Hesed, emphasizing that responsibility for community and the Jewish people is a direct extension of limmud ha-Torah, and that part of leading a Torah lifestyle is to dedicate oneself to engaging with and contributing to society. To this end, Amudim students devote time and energy each week to the pursuit of an internship or hesed volunteerism in a field of personal interest.
