Hundreds stop by JPEF booth to celebrate Israel in the Gardens

JPEF had the wonderful opportunity to participate in Israel in the Gardens at Yerba Buena Gardens in San Francisco. Hundreds of people came out to celebrate Israel and the Bay Area's Jewish community with great music, food and dance. Rabbis, grade school teachers and educators of all kinds read through our educational materials, and kids grabbed handfuls of stickers of Eta Wrobel's RESIST portrait.

It was great to hear so many enthusiastic responses about our upcoming 'Pictures of Resistance' photography exhibition in Palo Alto. It was excellent to see so many fresh faces who were eager to learn about the Jewish partisans, and JPEF's role in sharing the stories and life lessons of these unsung heroes. Thank you to Israel in the Gardens for having us, and thanks to everyone who stopped to talk to us!
