SSI gave me the tools and the passion to continue in a career defending our homeland and protecting our people. They developed our leadership skills, public speaking skills, etc. SSI changed the course of my life for the better. I wake up every day knowing that I’m making a difference for the 15.2 million Jews in the world. I owe my success in the Jewish non-profit world to SSI. I truly wouldn’t be where I am today without SSI.
SSI gave me the push of strength I needed to stand up for my beliefs in any situation. I acquired the skills needed to work in a team setting, build on creative ideas, and create successful programming. I learned how important it is to build an international community that shares resources crucial to standing up for our Zionist beliefs.

Having long been involved with SSI and having served on the SSI National Committee at UCLA in 2020, I can confidently say that the peak of my Israel activism work on campus was bolstered by SSI's priceless student network, grassroots resources, and education. SSI provided the greatest support system and freedom I could ever ask for as a Zionist student who was dedicated to making positive change for my community.
Students Supporting Israel gave me the foundation of how I carry myself as a Jew, Israeli and Zionist. It taught me that rather than impress people you should take initiative in impressing upon people to create dialogue during times where it wasn’t necessarily easy to facilitate.

SSI taught me how to build coalitions with groups outside of the Jewish community and gave me the opportunity to network with activists from all over North America. When I graduated, I wanted to give pro-Israel student leaders from Canada the same opportunities that SSI gave me. As the StandWithUs Canada Senior Director of Campus Affairs, I am continuously encouraging my Fellows to become active members of their local SSIs.
Students Supporting Israel showed me that I should not hide my Israeli and Jewish identity and that I need to stand and support Israel and the Jewish community for all the other students at Pace University that have felt the same struggles as me.
