Review for NECHAMA - Jewish Response to Disaster, Saint Paul, MN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

In the last five years, Nechama has come to have a much of a place in my heart as my friends and family. My first deployment was to a small synagogue in Iowa, where they were hit with a tornado. Although the building remained intact, the surrounding area of strewn with branches, trash and various debris. After a hard day's work, it felt so good to look around and realize that this synagogue was that much farther on the path to reopening for its' congregants. From then on, I volunteered as much as I could, traveling around Minnesota on deployments and helping out in the office. Nechama has changed so many lives for the better, and in the process taught its' volunteers many incredible life lessons.
