Yisrael is one of thirty youngsters around the country to be named 'Outstanding Volunteer' by Israel's Ministry of Education. After coming for a one time visit in the summer, Yisrael fell in love with SHALVA and decided to make it his personal project. For over two years he has been coming between 2-5 times a week after school, and he works hard to juggle between his studies and his love for SHALVA.
Yisrael invests his full strength in everything he does and is considering making work with special needs into a career one day.
