Virtual Tour This Month @Northern Israel Kibbutzim
Join us for a virtual tour of Northern Israel’s kibbutzim, in the eighteenth installment of our monthly Virtual Israel Travel
In March 2020, AIFL launched a new campaign to provide deeds to our friends and bring joy to people’s lives in response to the COVID-19 crisis. Since most of the world is staying at home we have come up with unique ways to bring Israel to everyone's homes through virtual activities and donations.
Each week, AIFL is encouraging our friends to share photos and videos of their Israeli-inspired meals that our world class chefs have designed for people to cook at home and bring Israeli flavor to their kitchens. AIFL will also host virtual events that will bring our friends together through health and wellness classes, entertainment, and art projects to provide deeds to our friends and give them a break during the day.
Live Demonstration of Home-Cooked Israeli Dishes Brought to You from Kitchens Across Israel and the United States
Each week our friends can submit their local charity, food bank, or organization to receive a $500 donation of Israeli food, treats, and beverages on behalf of AIFL. Our goal is to provide a deed to local communities to lift people's spirits during this crisis.
Here are the three recipes from our "Dishing Out Israeli Solidarity" Webinar on March 29th, 2020!
