Do you want to be an inspiration for Israel?

By Harvey Cohen, IAC Chair

The Israel Advocacy Committee (IAC) of Jewish Federation of Greater Naples is recruiting a few new members. Our mission is to bring timely Israel-focused information, education, and yes, inspiration, to greater Naples. Members help plan our programs, recruit, market participation, and when we can again be ‘in person,’ greet and register eager attendees.

Past programming has ranged from Israeli election discussion by Herb Keinon of the Jerusalem Post to a fascinating talk by Ambassador Dennis Ross and Professor David Makovsky on the impact of the inauguration of President Biden.

On Oct. 25, with our Hadassah chapter, we will jointly bring Dina Kraft from Jerusalem, via Zoom, to share podcasts of Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs and her colleagues in Gaza, telling very personal stories of engaging with ‘the other.’

The Israel Advocacy committee seeks to have all voices heard to ensure that we reach and touch as many people as possible. We are neither right wing nor left wing; we are unabashedly pro-Israel.

With your pride and passion for Israel, perhaps joining our committee is right for you.

Please email me, Harvey, at hwcohen@gmail.com to set up a time to explore whether this opportunity is right for you.
