On November 27, a festive gathering took place at Jerusalem’s Inbal Hotel, marking the first-ever Thanksgiving event organized by a national educational network.

Attendees enjoyed a warm atmosphere filled with camaraderie and shared purpose. The event highlighted the importance of providing quality education to those living in Israel's peripheral areas, where resources and opportunities can be limited.

As the evening unfolded, speakers shared inspiring stories of success and resilience, emphasizing the transformative power of education.
