Gal Lusky

A year ago Gal Lusky founded Israeli Flying Aid, a non-profit disaster relief organization. Tens of volunteers were sent to help tsunami victims in Southeast Asia in 2005, Hurricane Katrina victims in New Orleans as well as other disaster area victims in Turkey, Georgia and Romania.

The organization's insignia is a Star of David with wings and it was designed to show pride in being Israeli:

 

"I am very proud of my country, and if I can come with its flag, I will," says Lusky" 

 
I will not be surprised if in one of the next five years Gal Lusky will light a torch at the Independence Day ceremony...
