As you may know, we had previously planned a Yiddish-tango-themed fundraiser for YAAANA and Yiddishland for this November. However, following October 7th’s hair-raisingly horrific pogrom, massacre, and abduction of innocents in Israel, we decided to postpone tango for another time while we mourn for the lives lost and pray for the rapid return of the abducted, the safety of the people of Israel, and the return of peace to the Land. The event will focus instead on tikkun olam and half of the fundraiser proceeds will be provided to San Diego-based Adopt a Family Foundation, which provides support to terrorism victims in Israel. Highlighting the event will be several internationally known artists including Yuval Ron, coming to us from Los Angeles, and our board members Yale Strom, and Elizabeth Schwartz, who all generously agreed to volunteer for this special event. The program will feature storytelling and musical selections representing Yiddish and Israeli cultural traditions, intended to connect Yiddishkeit with the cultural traditions of Medines Yisroel. We hope you will take this opportunity to come together, partake in some incredible music and Israel-themed food and drink, and contribute to important causes, keeping in mind the importance of staying together, as a caring community and nation, facing multiple challenges, with resilience and determination. The Zoom link will be sent to the registrants closer to the event date. For more information visit: yiddishlandcalifornia.org Stay Connected Facebook
