When you watch a movie, do you stay at the end to watch all the credits? I’m always awed by how many people have worked together to make a great production. In the same way, please enjoy this list of all the people who have dedicated their time to make Kulanu so successful this year.This is a risky endeavor, since I’m sure to omit valuable volunteers – but if you let me know whom I’ve left out, we’ll have an even better list to post on our web site soon!

Please imagine this list scrolling on a big movie screen, with lovely music in the background!
