David Harris
Join Us Virtually
Wednesday, October 7, 2020
7:30 - 8:30 p.m. ET
 
 
 
 
Thirty years ago, David Harris took the reins at AJC and revolutionized global Jewish advocacy. He had a vision for something bigger and bolder, and that vision is now a reality. Under David’s leadership, AJC has become the most influential and transformational force advancing Jewish interests throughout the world.

On October 7, we will come together virtually, along with distinguished guests, to honor David. We will reflect on some of the most important moments in Jewish history over the past three decades, milestones that were only achieved because AJC—and David—were leading the charge.

To all who share David’s values—a steadfast commitment to protecting the Jewish people, standing up for Israel, and defending democracy—we invite you to join us.

A minimum gift of $1,250 in 2020 is required to attend. For those contributing at a leadership level, AJC would be pleased to welcome you as a Vice Chair or Tribute Committee member and include your name when our next invitation is sent out. We would appreciate your reply by September 17 to ensure your name is included.

Learn more about this special event, including the many ways you can contribute in honor of David and be recognized in the event’s virtual commemorative program.
