I started going to YJ camps at Sprout Lake in 2001, went to Tel Yehudah, Machon 2008, and have worked at TY since 2009. I am excited to take my Young Judaea passion and work with the 2011-2012 Mazkiriot and Tikkun Groups on social justice and environmental issues this coming year. I will be abroad in the Fall studying in Ghana, but will still be able to work with everyone and is excited to share the experiences I have with the rest of the movement next year! Alon Elhanan |
