A Spectacular Main Event

The Main Event

Our Jewish community came together in a spectacular fashion this past Tuesday at The Main Event. More than 1,500 people watched our virtual program. During the course of the evening, participants were treated to music from Matisyahu, greetings from the President of the State of Israel Reuven Rivlin and an insightful conversation between The Rt. Honorable Tony Blair, Prime Minister, Great Britain and Northern Ireland (1997-2007) and journalist and PBS television host Alison Lebovitz. Attendees learned how their donations are helping people during the difficult days of the pandemic and responded to the needs by contributing nearly $1,000,000 to the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign. If you did not have a chance to make a donation, please consider doing so by clicking here.
