YRF at the Miami Nova Music Festival Exhibition

We invite you to join Youth Renewal Fund as we visit the Miami Nova Music Festival Exhibition on Tuesday, January 7th. We are thrilled to offer the exclusive opportunity to speak with a Nova survivor, flown in from Israel to meet with our group and share their story. This private experience is sure to be incredibly impactful and we hope to see you there. Thank you to the Wiesenfeld Family Foundation for generously sponsoring this event!

Host Committee: Jason Wiesenfeld, Chloe Wiesenfeld, Sami Kurzman, Randye Kwait, and Jacquie Greyserman Ptalis & David Ptalis

All ticket proceeds benefit the Tribe of Nova & all donations benefit Darca Schools in Israel

Youth Renewal Fund’s Mission:

YRF is the philanthropic and strategic funding partner for Darca Schools in Israel, investing in an innovative education throughout Israel’s most underserved communities. Darca, Israel’s number one ranked network of schools, operates 48 high schools and learning centers, and serves nearly 30,000 students. Darca’s methods are based on academic excellence, commitment to high achievement, an innovative approach to education and inspiring leadership. These methods are working. 93% of Darca students passed the Bagrut matriculation exam in the 2023/2024 school year, making them eligible to apply to university, compared to the national average of only 53%. Darca students are not only outperforming their peers and the national average, but they are also achieving successes at the same rate or higher than those students in the wealthier communities. Just by attending a Darca school, students are doubling their chances of post-secondary education.

We gather in honor of all of the innocent lives lost, including the 62 Darca students and alumni who have been murdered or killed in battle since October 7th. We continue to pray for the additional graduate who remains a hostage in Gaza, along with the others still held captive. May their memories be a blessing.
