JULY 25 • 2024 | 13 J N teeming with people gather- ing and trying to somehow live their lives in a hot Israeli summer during a war. MEGA SOLIDARITY EVENT Our encounter with Birthright ended that night on a high note at the Mega Solidarity Event held at the tourist spot Mini Israel. Nearly 2,000 Birthright participants, Onward volunteers and Excel interns, along with donors and soldiers, gathered as the sun set for a strolling Israeli dinner and a concert featuring Israeli Eurovision contestant Eden Golan as the main headliner for the evening. British-Israeli social media influencer Eylon Levy also made an appearance, urging students to take the positive energy they gained in Israel back to their campuses around the world. “You are not Gen-Z; you are Gen-Zionists, ” Levy said. “Being GenZionist means standing up to bullies. We need you to be the young Jewish resistance against the Campus Tentifada because if you don’t stand up for your- selves — nobody will stand up for you. ” It’s that lasting resilience after students depart Israel that Birthright’s leaders are counting on as the program strives to build back its post- war numbers. Enrollment for winter programs has already opened. Birthright CEO Gidi Mark emphasized the orga- nization’s profound lasting impact on shaping today’s Jewish leaders. Mark point- ed out that 50% of the top posts in key Jewish orga- nizations are populated by Birthright alumni. It was also Birthright alumni who found the strength and resolve to testify before Congress about the antisem- itism they experienced in college, he added. “The 10 days a young adult spends with us in Israel can be the most impactful days to shaping their Jewish identity, from the friends they make to the understanding they gain about the land of Israel itself, ” Mark said. “Even during a war, we take the responsibil- ity very seriously knowing that Birthright is the bridge between Jews in Israel and Jews in the diaspora. ” The world’s first all-women tank battalion takes the stage at the Mega Event.
