"Before Summer JAM, everyone I talked to had the same plan: go to college, start a family, make a lot of money. The most major issue that anyone faced was whether to spend a year in Israel or go straight to college. At JAM I met people who truly believe there is much more to life than that. I was overwhelmed by how much is needed to be done, and by how much I personally can do. I’ve learned how to get organized and how to convince others to change their lives. I learned to take initiative. I’m not going to forget any of it."
