You have likely heard of Birthright Israel, a magical life-changing trip that sends about 1000 young people from Toronto to Israel every year thanks to UJA and Canada Israel Experience.  But did you know they have a unique trip called Friends with Special Needs?  Funded by the Azrieli Foundation, the trip is a chance for young adults with developmental disabilities to experience Israel.  This year Jake Kravitz was one of the lucky ones to go. Check out this video to see how this trip changed his life and his connection to the Jewish community in Toronto.
