Photo Highlights of the Gathering of JCC Professionals From Miami and Yerucham

With Federation support, 15 professionals from Miami’s three JCCs – the Alper JCC Miami on The Jay Morton-Levinthal Campus, the Galbut Miami JCC on the Simkins Family Campus, and the Michael-Ann Russell JCC on the Sanford L. Ziff Campus – went in February to Yerucham, Israel, to explore new ways to deepen the long-standing partnership between the two communities. During the seven-day visit with their peers, the professionals traveled to various sites and planned joint programs that will enable residents of Miami and Yerucham to better understand each other. Each group shared the unique aspects of their community and their commitment to strengthening Jewish peoplehood.
