Pamela Kaplan z”l was dedicated to helping olim. She worked both in the UK and then 40+ years in Israel assisting singles and families from around the English speaking communities. Later in life she aided Ethiopians to settle and find new lives. Over her 50+ working years she was the instigator of many initiatives through her work with The British Embassy, The Zionist Federation,The British Settlers Association, The British Olim Society, The Jewish Agency, Telfed and many other major international organisations.
We will be remembering her life at a concert and memorial evening on 10th March 2016 in Tel Aviv.
If you knew Pamela you will appreciate why we are marking her memory in this way. Please do come and join us.
Even if you are not part of a couple you will enjoy the funny side of the evening!
Tea, coffee and light refreshments will be served.
SO WHAT EXACTLY IS A WHITE ELEPHANT EVENING?
No doubt over the years you’ve all been given a present that you really didn’t like / need / want. It’s probably very nice – it just isn’t you. Well here’s your chance to exchange it for something else more to your liking and go home satisfied (though in truth we can’t really guarantee that). What we can guarantee, though, is that you’ll enjoy the funny side of the evening.
The only thing we insist upon is that the gift must be new and unused and it must have some value that someone else would appreciate. And at least one item per participant. If you bring two or three then you will go home with the same amount as you brought. The items must be wrapped in newspaper or whatever making them unidentifiable.
The actual rules of the game will be explained at the start of the evening.
