Welcome to Impact India

Welcome to the IMPACT INDIA 2015 blog page! IMPACT INDIA: Giving Beyond the Jewish Community is a 12 day mission to Mumbai, India that brings together 20 Jewish University students from Toronto to contribute their passions and talents to enriching the lives of underprivileged kids in the Dharavi slums. IMPACT INDIA is a project of Shaarei Shomayim in partnership with Ve’ahavta, Hillel of Toronto and JLIC. This blog is a culmination of posts written by the participants on our 2015 trip, and is made up of topics that interest and excite us; this includes anything from music and food in India to the Jewish culture we encounter and the people we meet there. We will be posting approximately twice every day for the duration of our journey, so keep your eyes our for new posts. We are so excited to share our trip with you, and hope that it inspires you to make your own impact close to home! For more information on Impact India, contact: RabbiCheses@shomayim.org
