I really wanted to Thank you, your office and donors for enabling me to acquire a new Chumash , siddur and tehillim. As a bachur at the early stages of my learning these texts have proven to be and surly will continue to be the foundation of my Jewish education. Thank you for providing both these texts and an broader avenue of understanding what the world o yiddishkite can and inherently does offer.

Dear Jeff,
Unfortunately our stay in Israel is coming to an end.  we would be remiss, however, if we did not thank you before we leave.  Having a single son here in the army can be cause for anxiety. However, at least we know that if the army gives Marcus off for Shabbos at the last minute (as they frequently do), he will still find a Shabbos table at which to sit, thanks to your efforts.

Thank you also for giving us the opportunity to "pay back" just a little bit while we are here, by hosting at our own Shabbos table.  Truth be told, the five young people you sent us last Shabbos, and the four you sent us this Shabbos, truly enhanced our Shabbos table.  It is a pleasure to provide a meal to young, enthusiastic people who share our love of Israel.  B'li Neder, our dream is that some day we can host some of your young people EVERY Shabbos.  You are truly a tzaddik.

May H' grant you many years to continue your great work.
Sincerely yours,
Claire & Jay Hirschhorn

Hi Jeff
I went to the centre to say good bye, but the centre was closed.
I want to thank you from my heart for making my my time in Israel extra extra special, because of you my Shabbat experience was unforgettable, the experience will stay with me for ever (untill I will come back to Israel for more). The work you do is amazing, you are a Legend.

Hey Jeff! 

Thank you so much for everything.  Dollars for learning was a major part of my experience learning and growing in Israel this semester.  I have always had a major connection with Judaism and you're program only strengthened it.  It helped me gain an appreciation for a different type of Judaism that I had never really been exposed to before because my family is highly involved in the Conservative movement.  One extremely meaningful thing I have gained was a deeper connection to Shabbat.  Shabbat had always been a part of my family but the importance of observing never really impacted me.  With my chevruta we spend a few sessions learning about different perspectives on it and they all left such an impression on me.

Thanks!!
Lauren
