is what one participant had to say:
“I want to thank you for providing the opportunity for me to visit Israel . It was the most amazing experience of my life. In Jerusalem , I had the opportunity to see the spiritual beauty of the city and learn about the fascinating history of my ancestors. The vigorous outdoor activities such as the archaeological dig and the hike up Massada were very fun and created a great sense of connection to the land. Throughout the trip I was exposed to very interesting information about Israel 's most powerful leaders such as Yitzhak Rabin, who helped protect Israel from opposing forces from the time he volunteered for the commando unit of the Jewish community until his assassination in 1995. The most amazing part of the trip was going to the Independence hall in Tel Aviv. While sitting in the same hall where David Ben-Gurion had declared Israel a state, I felt a rush of emotional gratitude and love for the persistent and brave defenders of our nation. I had never felt so proud to be Jewish. Moreover, I felt a great sense of responsibility for the security and longevity of Israel . My experiences in Israel have made me more active in my synagogue and the Jewish community as a whole. In my University, UCLA, I plan to get more involved with a Jewish club on campus called Bruins for Israel . I want to strengthen the ties between my community and Israel by educating students and building support groups. I want to thank you again for your dedicated support for Israel and the young Jewish Americans around the world."
