UIA Women’s Division NSW Brunch: record-breaking attendance
UIA recently held its annual Women’s Division Brunch with headline speaker Elica Le Bon, a UK-born activist of Iranian descent, attorney, staunch and influential supporter of Israel.
It was the single largest fundraising event of Jewish women in Australia’s history with 1,305 women, over three generations, united in their shared commitment to Israel and philanthropy. Attendees also heard from Gali Eilon, a true example of the heroic youth of Israel who saved others on Kibbutz Kfar Aza on that traumatic October 7 day. Tair Telem, a beneficiary of the UIA-supported Heartbeats program, a national program that provides critical care to families facing extreme hardships, also told the audience of her recovery from postpartum depression.
