A graduate’s letter

“Three years ago I came to the “Neve Yehuda” Home. As I walked in, to meet my group, I immediately got a good impression. I can’t imagine where have I had been today without the education, support and confidence given me by the staff and the children as well. I was a very violent, rebellious and sad boy and I hadn’t many friends. Looking back I can see three years of good experiences. Today, many thoughts come to my mind such as: Where will I be next year, what kind of friends will I have, in which boarding-school will I live and who will be my new “Parents”. I think that such thoughts come to each graduate’s mind. I am sure I’ll deeply miss my group friends, as we grew up together and they are like my family. I’ll never forget them and I’ll never forget my “Parents” who love and care for me like real parents. I wish my group success in the future and the “Madrichim” good luck in educating and taking care of the next group, just as they succeeded with me.” A.I
