Thanks to your “Rosh HaShana Seder” I was able to make one of my one to my friends’ families in 24 hours’ notice. Victoria, Jerusalem
I am really glad I got your Sukkot brochure just before the holidays– finally I understand what exactly we are celebrating at Sukkot. Raya, Haifa
It is really important that I have a place now where I meet other parents who are dealing with the same issues as I do – even though we live in Israel for a long time. Apparently, I am not alone, and it’s ok to wonder and learn new things about my Judaism together with my kids. Thank you for this amazing experience!Tanya, Tel-Aviv
