Testimonials


"Meeting your wonderful group has done more for us than we could ever put into words."

- Yoav Schaefer, IDF Lone Soldier from California

"There are very few feelings you can have that match the feeling coming from a trip like that. It’s being on the front lines, it’s being in their rooms and tents, it’s eating with those soldiers. They are amazing kids. And they are kids."

- Kenneth Fishman, FIDF Supporter from Massachusetts

"What I experienced this week with all of you will forever be a part of me. I sat on the plane and found myself reflecting on it all and I just started weeping. I could not have had a higher honor than to have shared it with all of you. I feel I have made friends for life and, more importantly, formed a connection with Israel."

- Brett Shapiro, FIDF Supporter from Florida

"There’s no better way to see Israel… I guarantee you a trip of a lifetime!"

- Adam Tantleff, FIDF Supporter from New York
