It seems just a short while ago that we had our wonderful summer together at the Ramah Jerusalem Day Camp, but Hanukkah is already here, and kayitz 2015 is rapidly approaching. We hope you'll join us again for the upcoming summer!

We'd love your feedback, suggestions, and comments on the past summer. Please take part in this ongoing conversation by completing our survey. 

I am available at any time to answer any questions. 

I look forward to hearing from you!

Happy Hanukkah and Chag Urim Sameach,
Meir
Executive Director, Ramah Israelhan
Happy Hanukkah!
