I am excited to be participating in the Dream Israel Teen Initiative and raising funds for important projects in Israel. Jewish National Fund is supporting Israel in a number of programs. I have chosen to raise funds for Ukrainian Refugee Aid. Jewish National Fund-USA is providing emergency relief and rescue aid programs for Ukrainian refugees through their affiliates in Israel. 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.

If I meet my fundraising goal by 25 July 2022, JNF will provide me with a grant towards my own Israel experience attending a semester abroad at Heller 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.
