“After hearing inspiring stories that these soldiers have to share, I want others to have the same opportunity that I have, to witness the brotherhood between these brave men.” – Layla
Layla
Layla is a student from Seattle, USA. Layla’s mitzvah project was Mind, Body and Soul. She interviewed three BFL soldiers, one with PTSD, one with a bodily injury, and a third that works with the diaspora. Her questions helped her learn about the IDF soldier and their role in protecting Israel and the Jewish people. She also learned that Emmanuel prefers shawarma over falafel!

“Raising money for an Israeli charity for my Bar Mitzvah is important to me due to my deep connection to Israel through my large Israeli family. I particularly wanted to support Brothers for Life in tribute to all the soldiers who have served and continue to serve in the Israeli army. I have so much respect and admiration for the sacrifices that they have made.” – Guy

Guy, a student from England, and his father Shahar completed a fundraising challenge for BFL. They climbed Hellevelyn, the third-highest peak in the English Lake District. Despite the wind and cold they completed the trek and raised over $2,500.
