The “Shepherds” & Advisers

Fahmina -To me, Kids4Peace is one of the most amazing organizations created. The idea of bringing adolescent children together to create peace is a phenomenal concept. These kids are so bright, so smart and are willing to put their religious differences aside so they can get along. Never in my life have I visualized that until I experienced this camp. I would highly recommend this camp to anyone who is not only looking for a diverse, peaceful learning experience but also just for fun!

Anna - Help kids experience some thing new, open their minds and realize that because some one is different doesn’t mean that they should be hated.  Show them there are peaceful ways to solve problems.

Holly - Meeting people who they normally wouldn’t meet.  Every body is similar.  What seems hopeless, Israel more conservative, Palestine more fractured.  Change kids perspectives.  Individual people make a huge difference, beyond politics.

Zak - People like each other more, and learn that people are people.

Jesse - If people don’t know about something, they get scared and angry.  K4P is to show kids about other religions, and not to be afraid.  Kids will be calmer and more understanding.  Know that there’s more out there.  Fun.

Jill “Jewish Advisor” from Jerusalem - Hope that K4P will accomplish in each child a chance to rethink all the preconceived notions that they came in with and that they walk out the doors with a desire to truly be a peace maker.  Any one of us in a situation of conflict will try to find the peaceful solution to the problem.  making peace is also a challenge to do within yourself, between two people, in a family, in a community, between 2 peoples, 2 lands, 2 cultures, religions of the world, G*D.
