Shalom ZOA Members, Friends and Supporters of Israel,

Philadelphia ZOA is looking for volunteers to help us with research, to make calls and participate in mailings in the coming weeks as we gear up for our biggest event of the year: The Annual Philadelphia ZOA Gala.

The Gala takes place on Sept. 15.

Some of the tasks can be done from your home or office. Mailings take place in the Bala Cynwyd vicinity.

If you can lend us some of your skills and time, please call our Office at 610-660-9466 and ask for Steve.

Thank you

New ZOA Advocacy Workshop Available for Groups Large and Small

There is advocacy, and then there is “Strategic, Effective Advocacy” – the focus of a new Philadelphia ZOA workshop available to Jewish and Christian congregations, organizations and even smaller groups.

Learn how to be pro-active rather than re-active; find out how to be more effective on social media; amplify your message; make your advocacy count by contacting the people who matter.

It is a lively presentation with audience participation offering new ways to look at and to try to solve an old problem.

We recently rolled out this new workshop for an event for JCOR – the Jewish Community of Rhawnhurst and received good feedback.

If you would like to schedule this workshop or a speaker from our Speakers Bureau or host a parlor meeting, please see details in the two flyers below.

 

If you are already a member, please make sure your annual dues are up-to-date. If you are not sure, contact us and we will check and let you know. It may be time to renew your membership.

You can also invite your friends or relatives to join Philadelphia ZOA, and additionally, you can purchase a gift membership for a loved one.

You can join or renew online by clicking the donate/join tab above. Or you can call us at: 610-660-9466.

We value each and every member!

Bring ZOA’s Message and Knowledge To Your Friends and Neighbors

Host an Advocacy Workshop, ZOA Speaker or Parlor Meeting

If you are like most people, you have friends, neighbors and even relatives who do not quite understand what is taking place in one of the most pivotal regions in the world.

The Middle East is home to key U.S. allies and enemies; it is the focal point of much of the media; it is the source of most of the terrorism that plagues the world; it is where a large amount of American foreign aid is targeted and the source of much of the world’s oil. It is where our beloved Israel is trying to exist and thrive.

But the Middle East has become a muddled area to most Americans because of incomplete or biased coverage, plus a campaign of mis-education in schools and universities.

One of ZOA’s missions is to clarify the issues and to help Americans understand what is taking place in the Middle East and how it impacts them.

Help us fulfill this vital mission by hosting a parlor meeting in your home. A small gathering can make a huge difference.
