Do this!

This was an amazing opportunity and I would not have done this program with anyone other than AJWS. They are professionals both in international development and education which is the perfect combination if you want to learn about international development. AJWS helped me learn about the country I served in (India), how to have realistic expecations, how to live modestly, and how to overcome challenges. They arranged for my placement, housing, and all the other details. They were always a call away if I needed them. I had a ton of independance but knew I could rely on them for as much support as I needed.

The NGO they assigned me to was great. They not only were a place I came to work, but they were my friends. We traveled India together and they helped me understand the work I was doing. I also learned a great deal about how I want to be Jewish as a young adult and reflected on the importance of my faith. No one forced me to do anything, I got to chart my own path, make my own mistakes, and have incredible experiences. This was an amazing year of my life and I hope you jump on the opportunity to join WPF!
