This summer, SHS graduates Julia Ferranti, Daphne Ben-Gurion, Maya Moskowitz and Sydney Stracher are working at the Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF) and have planned an event to allow friends, family and the community to learn more about the soldiers. On Monday July 25th at 7 pm they will hold a Friends of the Israel Defense Forces Parlor meeting, which will be an intimate gathering where wounded IDF soldiers will share their courageous stories. These dedicated soldiers are truly an inspiration.
Julia started working for Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF) in February and Daphne, Sydney and Maya joined her this summer when they returned from school. Their parents have been involved in the organization for many years and helped them to understand how important it is to support the brave soldiers of the IDF. Some of their family members have gone on missions in Israel through the organization and were given the opportunity to meet and get to know the soldiers on a personal level. From organizing events to interacting with supporters, their experience with FIDF has shown them that hard work and dedication can help impact and improve the lives of the soldiers
