  • "We were able to do really impactful things for individuals and communities. I will never forget the man we helped the first day. I was amazed how quickly everyone jumped into action and made the impossible possible. The Israelis in the North are literally holding down the fort and it felt great to be able to give back to them."

  • "I felt a surprising amount of gratitude from Israelis we encountered along the way. Every casual conversation I had with Israelis they seemed truly surprised and appreciative of what we were doing and I found that quite touching."

  • "My favorite part of this trip was finally returning to Israel after an incredibly challenging two-plus years in Israel and across the diaspora. It was so special to arrive knowing only a few people and leave with a new community, especially knowing we all live in LA. I feel deeply privileged to have been able to volunteer, support Israelis, and bear witness."
