Honoring Victims Through Action and Restoration
The Jewish National Fund-USA is dedicated to remembering those who were tragically lost in the terrorist attacks on October 7. As part of a heartfelt mission, the organization has launched several initiatives aimed at honoring these victims while also focusing on revitalizing affected communities and restoring hope in the region.
We Choose Life Campaign: A Meaningful Tribute
The We Choose Life campaign stands as a touching tribute, offering supporters a way to remember individuals who are no longer with us. Jewish National Fund-USA provides special commemorative tree certificates and memorial candles, enabling people from around the world to honor the memories of those lost in the October 7 attacks and through the months that followed. This initiative offers a direct method for contributing to the healing process.

Moreover, there will be opportunities to light these memorial candles during a live broadcast of the Commemoration Ceremony, fostering a sense of community and shared remembrance.
Solidarity Missions: Building Connections
Following the tragedy of October 7, nearly 4,000 volunteers have traveled to Israel through the programs of Jewish National Fund-USA. In recognition of their contributions, the organization will host the We Choose Life Solidarity Mission. This mission will create connections between supporters and local Israeli communities, allowing them to witness rebuilding efforts firsthand while extending their solidarity.
