Our First Day!

Today was a great day in Los Angeles! The weather was beautiful.  We started at the Jewish Home for the Aging.  We sang, played bingo and had meaningful conversations with the elderly.  They told us how much they enjoyed our company and appreciated the time we spent with them.  Many told us that they rarely get visitors and we were happy to be with them for the morning.  We had a picnic lunch at a park while listening to motivational speakers including Rabbi Shmuly, Senior Jewish Educator at UCLA Hillel.  We learned about the different forms of tzedaka and giving back to our community.  We are very happy to be giving back to the community by visiting the elderly and are looking forward to working with and tutoring impoverished children.
