Israel Activism

Committee Chair: Susan Canter
Email: israelcommittee@jewishcenter.org
The Jewish Center considers Israel activism a core value. Not only do we pray each Shabbat morning for a strong and secure State of Israel and for lasting peace in the Middle East, but we also do what we can to actualize those prayers, members who make aliyah are celebrated; travel to Israel, especially through The Jewish Center mission is encouraged; support of Israeli businesses, charities, and the Israeli economy is emphasized; and ongoing demonstrations of support for the government of Israel are endorsed. In addition, the Israel Activism Committee organizes events and projects to advance our members participation in local and national civic life to promote consciousness and awareness about Jewish issues by communicating with our elected official and disseminating information to the community.
