My relationship to Ronen Foundation
My connection with Karen Ronen began when I was asked by Yaffa to volunteer and play at a hospital for children with physical disabilities. Of course, I responded positively and actually saw it as a mission and an opportunity to contribute and help others feel better through the power of music. Since then, I have had the chance to participate in other activities organized by the foundation, for which I am very grateful. The foundation helps me significantly with funding for participation in various musical activities around the world, and for that, I am very thankful.
