Detroit Connection
Detroit-area guests at Seeds of Peace
Camp came away more enthusiastic
than ever about the organization's
progress, and more fired-up about the
Sept. 10 dinner.
Aside from a 5750,000 grant from
the U.S. government for overseas pro-
gramming, the organization depends
entirely on camp fees and contributions.
Florine Mark-Ross of Farmington
Hills looks at the camp as "preventive
medicine for the future." "It's phe-
nomenal what he [Wallach] does up
there," she says.
Helen Daoud of Bloomfield Hills
says, "I have six grandchildren and I
want the world to be a better place for
them.
Mark-Ross' daughter Lisa Lis, who
with her husband Hannan chairs the
Detroit Seeds of Peace group, points
out that campers are known as seeds.
Like seeds, she says, they grow and
spread from one place to another.
"Hate started with one person and it
exploded." says Lis, whose daughter
Ariella is a Seeds of Peace camper this
summer. "Love starts with one person
and it can grow from 40 ro 40,000.
Maybe this camp wont affect their
lives today, but it will affect their chil-
dren and grandchildren.
