Happy Tenth Anniversary to Hasbara Fellowships! Dear Friends & Fellow Hasbara Alumni,
My name is Judith Wertheim and I am a junior at the University of Cincinnati studying social work. I\'m also the current President of our student pro-Israel group, Bearcats for Israel. Participating in the Hasbara Fellowships activism training program in Israel this past winter had a profound impact on me.
Before I went on Hasbara I was unsure of how to approach students to discuss pro-Israel ideas. Hasbara Fellowships provided me with the in-depth knowledge, guidance, and resources that enabled me to confidently lead my fellow students and the pro-Israel movement on my campus. The program helped me harness the enthusiasm I have always had for Israel by partnering it with advanced communication skills to more effectively convince others of the justice of Israel\'s cause.
With the support of Hasbara Fellowships, I have successfully expanded Bearcats for Israel and brought campus-wide attention to Israel through numerous events and articles sharing Israel\'s message of wanting peace.
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 by making a donation, in any amount you are able. By supporting Hasbara Fellowships you are giving students the chance to expand their knowedge and love of Israel, while at the grassroots level, helping fight anti-Israel sentiment, a truly momentous cause.
Thank you,
Judith Wertheim
Hasbara Fellow, Winter 2011-2012
