7.5 Ways to see Israel
Leading up to the 75th anniversary of Israeli independence, the Westchester Mishlachat will focus on education and connection to Israel through a range of stories, individuals and initiatives representing Israel’s diverse and democratic society.
To celebrate Israel at 75, our programs will offer “7.5 angles on Israel”: home; diversity; achievements; “justice justice you shall pursue” (tzedek, tzedek tirdof); “out of the box;” “not perfect, but beautiful;” shared journey/destination; and “between NYC and Israel.”
