Hello, Friends of Israel.Many of you have inquired about the Volunteers for Israel (VFI) program to Feed the Soldiers. As I have mentioned before, you must remember 3 important points about this adventure: no volunteers over the age of 79, the program is bundled to include touring on the weekends, and we must have 10 volunteers to make a program happen at a particular time.We set our own dates and then check to see if the IDF will include us at that time. I am planning to go from Friday, September 5 to Sunday, September 14 and am looking for 9 others to accompany me. If you are able to be one of them, please reply to this email as soon as possible, so that we can get clearance. Check our our Feed the Soldiers page at www.vfi-usa.org.I would also like to schedule a summer program from Friday, July 18 to Sunday, July 27. If those dates work for you, please notify me. Start asking others to sign up so we can reach our goal of 10 volunteers.If any of you can secure a group of 10 for other dates, let me know as well.Let’s do this! The need for volunteers will continue for a very long time even if we are blessed to see a permanent end to this war.Shabbat Shalom—
