Three years after October 7, 2023, we remember the lives taken and the lives forever changed.

We also recognize the commitment of Jewish communities who have continued to show up—with generosity, solidarity, and care.

From emergency relief and advocacy for the hostages to Purim gifts, support for reservist families, and rebuilding communal life, this carousel highlights just some of the ways AZM and our partners have stood with Israel and those affected.

As we move toward תְּקוּמָה (Tekumah)—national rebirth—our shared responsibility continues. Families and communities still need our support, and rebuilding requires all of us.

We cannot forget. We must keep showing up.

A major disaster was miraculously avoided yesterday on a Flydubai flight to Tel Aviv. Due to the heroic actions of the captain and Israeli passengers, an apparent hijacking was prevented. We are extremely relieved that everyone made it home safely and wish a quick recovery to all injured, especially the selfless brave pilot.

129 years ago today the first Zionist Congress concluded in Basel. Read a column by AZM President Mark Levenson in JNS.org to find out why the Congress is still relevant today, almost 80 years after the establishment of Israel.

From its earliest days, the movement brought together people who differed sharply over religion, economics, politics, culture and the best path toward Jewish national renewal.

The mission of the Israeli-American Council (IAC) is to build an engaged and united Israeli American community that strengthens the Israeli and Jewish identity of our next generation, the American Jewish community, and the bond between the peoples of the United States and the State of Israel.

The IAC strengthens Israeli-American, Jewish, and pro-Israel communities by fostering Jewish and Israeli identity, developing civic leadership, and creating meaningful opportunities to connect, learn, and take action. Through innovative programs, leadership development, and community building, we empower people of all ages to make a lasting impact. From celebrating Jewish and Israeli holidays and traditions to advancing civic engagement and combating antisemitism, we build resilient communities that lead with confidence.

IAC was established in June 2007 and engages over 130,000 people annually.

We are proud to highlight IAC and its continued work supporting the Israeli American community.
