The unprecedented attack against Israel by Hamas on October 7th left us all shocked and horrified, looking for answers. But one thing is certain - Israel will never be the same. How will it change? And what does it all mean for the Israeli and Jewish community in the US? Join us for a special evening bringing together top entrepreneurs, investors, journalists and other key stakeholders from US and Israel as we examine what's next for our beloved country. All tickets sold and event proceeds will be donated to top Israeli nonprofit organizations. Kosher food will be served.Open Bar. Space is limited.

This is not your typical fundraiser event. We are a group of Israelis and Jews from Westchester County who are passionate about Israel and wanted to bring together the community for an evening of great content, high-level networking, and yes... a bit of fun too!

Hosted at the beautiful Hampshire Country Club in Mamaroneck, the evening will give us an inside look into Startup Nation and how the Israeli tech community is adapting to the new reality. In addition, we will hear from Israel's celebrity reporter, Yuna Leibzon, who is covering the war from NY 24/7 for channel 12 news in Israel, and will provide her insights into the growing antisemitism in NY and around the country.

Most importantly, ALL PROCEEDS from the event are tax deductible (processed by Tamid Westchester) and will be donated to the following Israeli nonprofit organizations who are working tirelessly to help Israel win this war, including:

1. Zaka Israel - https://zakaworld.org/

2. Magen David Adom - https://afmda.org/

3. Brothers and Sisters for Israel - https://www.brothersandsistersforisrael.org/

In partnership with Westchester Jewish Council and Tamid Westchester, we're grateful for our sponsors who made this event a reality including 97212 Ventures, Blumberg Capital and Joule Ventures, Sullivan & Worcester LLP, Rimon LLP, and Continuum Accounting and Tax Services, among others.

Donations can also be made via an advised fund directly to Tamid Westchester. Please email Rabbi Scottt Weiner for more details at rabbiscott@tamidwestchester.org

Kosher food will be served. Open bar.
