Shana Tova and Chag Sameach as we enter the High Holiday season! The High Holidays are a time to celebrate with friends, family, and community to reflect on 2022 and look ahead to 2023.
We are pleased to share some highlights from this year
Our Cross-Sector Jewish-Arab Teacher Exchange is now a part of the Ministry of Education’s Geffen Program, which will make it more accessible and allow more schools to participate.
Every single graduate from the Hi-Tech Seeds Program was successful in finding a job or decided to continue their education in their chosen field.
We saw a 100% increase in schools’ interest in Encounters, Children Teaching Children, and Shared Language programs this year.
Without your support, this would not have been such a successful year.
In this coming year, we look forward to:
Opening mediation centers in five Arab towns to address the high rates of crime in Arab communities.
Launching our Artists in Residence program at the Givat Haviva campus, which will allow six Jewish and six Arab artists to share working space and build connections in the art world.
Drafting plans for our new Center for Business and Social Change, which will offer shared workspaces, classes, and mentorship to twenty Arab and twenty Jewish entrepreneurs.
We are thrilled with what was accomplished in 2022 and are so excited for 2023!
P.S. I would love to hear about what you’re looking forward to in this coming year. Feel free to reply to this email, or give me a call, I’d love to chat!
