United as one people with one heart, the quote “Am echad be lev echad” has been a guiding principle in my life, its significance deepening in the horrors and terror of October 7th. This summer, my focus is helping to repair the world, through acts of compassion and volunteering to both our brothers and sisters in Israel and America. Recognizing the profound shift in our society today, particularly in light of my journey from living a secular life to being an observant Jew at Yeshiva University, I am inspired to address the increased divisions and unrest. Guiding my aspiration towards helping others, my commitment to volunteering with diverse organizations, fostering understanding beyond our differences while we strive to achieve one goal--bringing love and comfort to our brothers and sisters in Israel and America. Thank you for donating towards my goal! Am Israel Chai!
