On Sunday, when "Binyamin's" teacher Rav Yair sat me down and told me the gruesome details of this young cadet's story, I shed two tears: one of sorrow for what he endured in childhood and one of joy for his newfound strength.
"I have no doubt," said Rav Yair, "that Binyamin will reach great heights in the IDF and be a role model and leader for wayward youth in the future. He's changing by the day... it's happening in front of our eyes.

Though his parents are alive, they are utterly dysfunctional as related in his story. He has no home, no contact with them, no support. Binyamin does have great talent that he is now tapping into. Paying his tuition is perhaps your most meaningful Yom Kippur gift.
