My friends at Yad Lakashish,

I've been home for 2 weeks now and have had some time to do a lot of thinking and reflecting on the life changing summer I spent with you all. I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to help with the wonderful contribution you have made to the elderly community in Jerusalem. Even after helping out for two months, I was still in shock every morning when I arrived to see these people creating such beautiful products. It is truly a very unique organization that has completely touched my heart. Send all of my love to my friends in the Cartonage! Really, thank you so much for an amazing summer.

Lots of love from North Carolina,
Jayme Watral
