GALA 2025

Our MC, Adva Dadon, made moving award presentations to Yael Eckstein (Woman of the Year), the Cramer Raskin Family Foundation (Intergenerational Giving Award), S. Horowitz & Co. (Volunteer Partnership Award), and Isracard (Social Partnership Award).

A powerful video message from First Lady Michal Herzog and a captivating performance by Idan Raichel further highlighted the evening. The event also marked the expansion of our "Road to Resilience" campaign, using our mobile science labs as mobile therapy centers to serve Gaza border communities.

Rolling Robotics Lab

This year, we proudly launched the Rolling Robotics Lab, dedicated in memory of Msgt. (Res.) Constantine Sushko z"l, whose passion for science and robotics lives on through this program. The lab fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, making learning a fun and enriching experience for children.

Our "Road to Resilience" campaign is a commitment to strengthening our programs and expanding our reach. This 1 million NIS initiative, launched at our Gala, will ensure that we can continue to provide vital services and support to those who need it most.

An Out of this World Purim Carnival and more

Our After School Centers were transformed into a vibrant, otherworldly Purim celebration on March 16th! We launched the festivities with a warm, comforting lunch, followed by an 'outer space' themed carnival that was truly out of this world! The children's creativity shone as they donned incredible costumes, and the air was filled with laughter and excitement. We're so thankful to the EL AL volunteers who joined us, adding their energy and enthusiasm to this fantastic Purim experience!

This Purim we distributed 390 Mishlochei Manot (Purim baskets) for the elderly and another 300 for children.

Passover Food Distribution Center

This Passover, our mission is to provide essential Pesach Food packages for those in need in the community we serve. Our goal is to fill a total of 3,500 packages, which will include special provisions for 800 Holocaust survivors.
