I am excited to be participating in the Jewish National Fund “Dream Israel” Teen Initiative. This program raises funds for important projects in Israel. I have chosen to raise funds for Ukrainian Refugee Aid.

Jewish National Fund-USA affiliates are on the ground at the Ukrainian border and in Israel helping refugees find safety - both emotionally and physically - as well as setting them up for a successful future during this tumultuous time. They are supporting the mobilizing of support to help Ukrainians whose lives have been upended during this unprovoked war. Ukraine is home to one of the world's largest Jewish communities and its historical and spiritual roots run deep. For more information visit: https://www.jnf.org/our-work/ukraine-relief

If I meet my fundraising goal of $5000, JNF will provide me with a grant towards my own Israel experience attending a semester abroad at the Alexander Muss High School, where I will explore my own connection to the land and people of Israel. Please consider supporting this important initiative and my efforts to meet my fundraising goal.
