Busy Day....

Spent most of the day on the phone. First, I redeemed my credit card points for El Al Matmid points & booked my pilot trip. Next, I spoke with someone from the community of Mevo Choron. Sounds like a good option but needs further investigation. Then, I spoke with an employment counselor at Nefesh B'nefesh to start the employment ball rolling. After that I e-mailed an organization that helps people who want to make aliyah with financial grants. Lastly, I booked 2 tickets on the Hebron fundraiser boat for next week.
Now, Its off to learn...

Join our buying group

For all those looking to make aliyah in the next 8-12 months: We are gathering people together to make big purchases as one unit to get a significant discount on items such as appliances, shipping and cars. We have some contacts but are open for more.

Kuddos to NBN

Just want to say how impressed I am with Nefesh B'nefesh. They are really on top of everything from communities to jobs to schools for the kids. Lots to do but we are getting good guidance.

Meeting With Nefesh B'Nefesh

We met with Tammy from NBN yesterday. It was a very productive and informative meeting discussing everything Aliyah. She outlined our rights as Olim Chadashim (new immigrants) and gave us a timetable for pre-aliyah planning.

The community representatives and the employment people have already been in touch with us to continue the process.
