The Main Event Brings Together Powerful Song and Conversation

Before a sold-out crowd of nearly 1,700 guests this past Sunday, Jewish Miami came together for The Main Event: A Night of Friends and Allies. Federation Board Chair Lily Serviansky and General Campaign Chair Moj Khaghan Danial shared how we are Jewish Miami Strong and how the Annual Federation Campaign supports local and global needs. In a stunning musical performance, 2025 Eurovision contestant Yuval Raphael paid tribute to our resilience after October 7, while IDF Sergeant Major (res.) Noam Buskila brought the crowd to its feet. Noa Tishby moderated a spirited and often emotional conversation with Van Jones and Douglas Murray about the disturbing rise of worldwide antisemitism. Jonathan Raiffe, Pamela Wolfson, Maty Jamal, Joey Katz and Jacob Diamond were honored with Young Leadership Awards for their extraordinary work in Jewish Miami. Click here to watch the highlights.
