HI! My name is Abbie Solomon and I am very excited and lucky to have been accepted into Sharfman's girl’s seminary in Israel next year (2015-2016). Since this will be my first time in Israel, I would love to have this wonderful opportunity to study and experience the beauty that exists within this holy country. I want this coming year to be a year that I can finally live and express everything I have studied and not have to go against the norms of society.  In addition to facing daily challenges, such as keeping kosher, observing the Sabbath and dressing modestly; I would like for this year to help me determine the type of person I want to become and most importantly the type of family I want to raise with proper Jewish values. The incredible relationships I will form with my teachers and friends will hopefully stay ingrained with me for a life-time.  My goal for this year is to attend seminary, which will be the foundation and inspiration for my growth. I would greatly appreciate any donations to help reach my goal. Thank YOU so much for supporting my future! :)
