Happy Tenth Anniversary to Hasbara Fellowships!

Dear Friends & Fellow Hasbara Alums,

Participating in the Hasbara Fellowships activitism training program in Israel had a profound impact on me.  Their intensive Israel activism training gave me the knowledge, tools, and confidence to stand up proudly, and make the case for Israel on my campus and in the workforce.  

For ten years, Hasbara has had a proven track record of empowering students to take action to protect Israel\'s reputation against the vicious lies and attacks taking place at universities across North America.  I have personally encountered anti-Israel sentiment both during law school and in the workforce and am thankful to Hasbara for giving me, and Israel, a voice.  

We are not on campus to respond to each professor abusing their podium to deligitimize Israel or ask tough questions to anti-Israel speakers and protesters. This makes it incumbant upon each of us to strengthen those who are fighting on Israel\'s behalf. 

We already know that tomorrow\'s decision makers are attending our universities today - and this is why it\'s imperative for us to support those who are dedicated to convincing others of the justice of Israel\'s cause.

I am proud to be a Co-Chair in Hasbara\'s Tenth Anniversary Campaign, and I hope you will join me, in supporting the next generation of Israel\'s ambassadors.  

Thank you,

Dafna Pollack Davidovitch
