"This year has been such an incredible experience. Having a small group on the program might have been the best part. These 8 people from around North America who are strangers to you, end up becoming some of your best friends. This year I got the chance to not only go around experiencing Israel for all it has to offer, but also volunteer and make an impact on some kids' lives. Going through both lockdowns and rockets pushed all 8 of us closer together and helped form the friendships we all have today. Going to Israel for a gap year is an opportunity no one should give up but seek out to do. Arevim Masa Year of Service, a year I'll never forget!"
