On October 7th, 2023, Israel endured the deadliest attack on Jewish people in a single day since the Holocaust. On Simchat Torah, a celebratory holiday of our Jewish heritage and pride, Hamas terrorists breached the southern Gaza border and took 1,200 innocent lives. There are still more than 100 hostages still in Gaza from more than eight different nations, showing that this is not just a Jewish or Israeli issue. It is an issue of humanity. And we must stand together to find comfort, support, and healing.
We invite the entire Atlanta community to participate in our upcoming event to honor and remember the events of October 7th.
