RE: Thank-you

Greetings,

I would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to you and to the entire ICA family for awarding the ICA prize for outstanding projects to the and Arava Science Center's myrrh project.

This award is a milestone in our long-standing partnership, which has provided support and supervision throughout the Science Center's establishment and expansion.

Thanks to your active involvement and attention, we continue to grow and enjoy advanced infrastructure, particularly innovative scientific equipment, enabling us to lead unique projects in education and applied research for the benefit of the periphery. Most importantly, we can employ wonderful scientists, researchers, students and other professionals in the Center's branches throughout the region. Together, we contribute to the growth and prosperity of the Negev.

We are honored to be chosen for this privilege and are fully aware that your support and confidence in us give us the strength to continue our activities.

On behalf of the myrrh-project team, Prof. Zvi Bentwich and Dr. Guy Cohen, the members of the Science Center and its management, I thank you very much for the award and for being true partners all along the way.

Sincerely,

Yael Maor
