Finding Meaning in Giving

Chevy Carmel, LCW ’28, Shares Her Experience Visiting Israel on a Touro Trip Over Midwinter Break

It was a week filled with holiness, a week of getting my hands dirty, a week of learning and most of all, it was a week of connection. This semester break, I didn’t hit a beach, a ski slope or even a restaurant. Instead, I headed to Israel with fellow Lander College for Women (LCW) students to contribute to the land and people who had lost so much over the last two years and to take in hot spots of another kind. While we didn’t stop to relax for a minute, we left restored and fulfilled.
