What do you love about Israel?

I love how easy it is to be Jewish in Israel, and how even strangers can feel like old friends once you start talking.

What are your goals and aspirations for the future?

I hope to one day make a positive and lasting impact on the world by working towards equality and social justice.

Why did you choose to volunteer with ENP?

I like working with populations that most people might not consider working with. ENP does amazing work with people who are getting adjusted to a new life, in a new country. I know what it’s like to adjust to a new home, and it’s not easy. As Jews, we have an obligation to help people who are new to our area, because we were once strangers in a strange land ourselves.

What do you hope to achieve through your experience with ENP?

I hope to positively impact the lives of others, to establish meaningful and lasting relationships, and to learn!
