The Jan. 11 program will highlight Chazaq’s mission of inspiring Jewish pride and continuity through its wide network of after-school programs, youth initiatives and groundbreaking work transferring public school students into Jewish day schools. More than 10,000 public school students have been touched by Chazaq programs and services, with more than 2,200 transferred to Jewish day schools across America.
The evening event will also recognize visionary supporters whose commitment has enabled Chazaq to expand into multiple communities to ensure that every child has access to meaningful Jewish education and positive role models.
Honorees include Rafael Ilishayev, co-founder and co-CEO of Gopuff; Kobi Karp, known for his architectural masterpieces; Shalom Zirkiev, founder of Rock Real group; Michael Farah, founder of Dr. Mobicare; and NBA All-Star legend Amar’e Staudamire, whose journey to a life of spirituality has inspired people across the globe.
The night will be uplifted by the presence of the Sephardi chief rabbi of Israel, Rabbi David Yosef, whose powerful guidance and unwavering support for Chazaq’s mission have touched communities worldwide.
Each honoree represents courage, leadership and a shared belief: No Jewish child should ever feel disconnected from their faith or future.
This gala is not just a celebration but a call to action.
A reminder that every child reached is another generation saved.
Another family strengthened.
Another future illuminated.
