On Monday at Beit Hanassi a small thank you reception was held to present recent aid activity that was offered to the survivors of Hurricaine Katrina by Israeli Flying Aid, IsraAID and the Ben Gurion University.

The groups have brought with them a DVD video-taped of their aid in Louisiana in which one of the
recipients of their kindness says to them: It melts my heart that you came all the way from Israel. We know what's going on in your country."
