Young, exuberant good will ambassadors travel across the ocean to deepen the ties to the Partnership 2000 in a very special way!

In the middle of June, a group of young adults from Arad-Tamar flew to four different communities of Partnership 2000 New Jersey-Delaware. The special bunch, were hand-picked by the Partnership 2000 staff to be counselors of the JCC Day Camps; the reciprocal of Kefiada, where American counselors come to camps in Israel to volunteer and teach English. The Ivriada program's goal is to instill the Israeli spirit into the lives of the youngsters in New Jersey.

Hila, one of the Arad counselors who is now in the JCC of Central New Jersey, says, "I'm having a wonderful time, the experience of a lifetime! Its great here!"

Members of the partner communities embraced the Ivriada counselors, giving them sense of family and a home away from home. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank all who have opened their hearts and homes for our young people!

Look for your Israeli spirit in the JCC near your home!
