Mazal tov to our incredible young professional leaders, Julia Zuckerman and Itay Alterman, on their recent wedding!

Julia and Itay have been nothing short of a force for good. Through their energy, vision, and generosity of spirit, they have used their networks and influence to build meaningful support for Israel's underprivileged children. From organizing events across New York City to inspiring their peers to get involved, Julia and Itay embody what it means to lead with both heart and action.

During a recent visit to Migdal HaEmek in Israel, Julia and Itay had the chance to see the impact of their efforts firsthand. Rabbi Grossman and the devoted staff welcomed them to Migdal Ohr, where they met the children whose lives are being transformed thanks to supporters like them.

One particularly moving moment of the trip was their visit to Migdal Ohr's Bridal Salon, a beautiful initiative that ensures young brides have everything they need to feel majestic on their wedding day—dresses, jewelry, shoes, and even essentials for starting their first homes.

Julia and Itay’s story is a reminder of the power of compassion and commitment.

They inspire us not only with their leadership but also with their personal example of building a home rooted in love, kindness, and a deep sense of responsibility for others.

From all of us at American Friends of Migdal Ohr: Mazal Tov, Julia and Itay! May you continue to go from strength to strength, blessing one another and the many lives you touch.
