Today was the Tikkun Olam committee's day of Community Week, and it was so much fun as well as extremely meaningful. 

We started off the day by going to the Youth Future House, where we got to spend time with children who have difficult home lives. With the kids we drew pictures and packaged food for lone soldiers. It was amazing to see the smiles on the kids' faces when we were dancing and talking with them, and interesting to hear their views about the IDF. 

After the Youth Future House, we headed to Almog Beach, to snorkel among many beautiful fish and sea life. We also did unique activities at the beach to learn about how we can keep the beach clean. There is a group of teens who are a part of a youth group specifically about keeping the beach clean!

To end off the day, we went on a yacht and had a delicious barbecue as well as a well-

earned dance party. It was an event filled, fun-packed, meaningful day!
