YOUKILIS VISITS ISRAEL
Originally published in the Jerusalem Post.
In the wake of the tragic events of October 7 – and with the continued hope of the hostages’ return – Dan Kraft, a prominent Boston-based philanthropist, and Kevin Youkilis embarked on a solidarity mission to Israel that was both deeply emotional and profoundly impactful. The trip, organized by Kraft and his wife Wendy, is part of a long family tradition of supporting Israel, one that spans generations…
…For Youkilis, who had long dreamed of visiting Israel, the trip was transformative.
“It has been one of the most eye-opening trips I’ve ever had in my life,” he shared. “From everything that Israel is about and stands for, it was truly a special trip to come here for my first time.”
