Celebrating Chanukah With the Miami-Yerucham Partnership

We are one big Jewish family and the unity was in full force on Wednesday’s Chanukah celebration hosted by the Miami-Yerucham Partnership. While Miami and its partner city Yerucham are separated by nearly 7,000 miles, the joy and spirit of Chanukah was shared across the ocean via Zoom. Participants enjoyed musical performances by HaZamir Yerucham and Kulna, a Moroccan donut-making demonstration, menorah lighting and more. Since 2007, the Miami-Yerucham Partnership builds meaningful relationships in order to strengthen both communities, and to foster and develop a love of Judaism, Israel and the Jewish people.
