JNF Breakfast for Israel
Host a Virtual Hostage Families Forum

Host a Virtual Hostage Families Forum

Please consider jointly or separately hosting one of these virtual events with families of the Hostages. It is crucial that we raise the consciousness of our community about the hostages, to keep their fate a matter of our concern and action. I appreciate that rabbis Soloway and Greene frequently call attention to the Hostages in their talks to their congregations; this program would add a lot to that. I’ve heard many hostage family members, and each time has been a powerful and inspiring -to-action experience. Redeeming the Captives is one of the most important mitzvot historically kept by the Jews, can we ramp up our local effort? Thank you for your consideration. 

Join us online to connect with Israeli hostages’ families through their personal stories. 

Our virtual sessions include: a guided virtual tour of ‘Hostages Square’ and an intimate conversation with a hostage family member.

Event Details: Sessions last 1 hour, are free of charge, and are conducted via Zoom in English, Hebrew or Spanish.  

Open to individuals (on pre-scheduled dates) or to groups of 10 or more participants (by special arrangement).

*** Kindly complete the form linked here to sign up. We will contact you with detailed session and Zoom login details.
