Why did you choose to volunteer with ENP?
I did not know much about the Ethiopian Jewish community, and I thought that this would be a great opportunity to learn more about different types of Jews. Additionally, I am interested in working in foreign service promoting human welfare on an international level.
What do you hope to achieve through your experience with ENP?
I want to raise international awareness about the ENP and gain professional contacts in the non-profit world. Additionally, I hope to gain a greater understanding of the Ethiopian-Jewish culture and history.
What are you most proud of about yourself?
I am proud of my ability to take initiative and go after my goals.
