SUMMARY:Death Over Donuts
DESCRIPTION:Grab a donut and participate in normalizing the most important and costly conversation America isn’t having.\nOur uniting truth is that every single one of us will die. Despite this fact\, our culture shies away from acknowledging it\, making everything—from discussions on end-of-life medical wishes to expressions of what we want our memorial services to look like—feel morbid and sometimes downright scary. But these conversations don’t need to feel this way! Join us for an evening of discussion and connection around what it means to you to have a “good death.” What do you wish for yourself and for those you love most? What conversations can you be starting with loved ones today to ensure that they and you receive the care we all truly deserve at the end of our lives? All are welcome!

SUMMARY:A Conversation with the Tzedek Center
DESCRIPTION:Building Bridges Between Israel’s Arabs and Jews Through Community Organizing: A Conversation with the Tzedek Center\nNovember 21\, 2024 | 7-8 PM  \nThe Tzedek Centers Movement is an Israeli organization that brings together people in Israel’s mixed cities to participate in training programs for social change.

Lev will be joined by colleagues Bar Kolodny (Partnerships Director)\, Michal Salamon (Financial Development Director)\, and Gil Amit Zamir (Director of Mefalsei Nativ). A Q&A will follow. \nRegistration is required. Register here!
