Put yourself in the picture, and encourage friends
and family to march with us.

Why we March... We are 7 diverse synagogues from Long Island’s South Shore, united to support Israel and the Jewish people. We march to honor 64 years of world-leading Israeli achievements: like turning swamps into gardens; embracing the oppressed and exiled; and creating advanced technology for a brighter future. We celebrate how Israel has
met challenges by “Branching Out” in new directions, and “Turning a New Leaf” toward opportunity. By marching united, we proudly proclaim
Israel’s universal message to humanity: "Worthy goals, plus shared effort, elevate the spirit, inspire the mind, and establish a future
filled with promise."
