Dress Code: Black Tie

Get ready for an unforgettable red carpet event at the ZAKA Yom HaAtzmaoot Award Ceremony on May 1st at Circo in Times Square, celebrating our favorite Jewish activists. Join all our nominees for an elegant cocktail reception, followed by a powerful award ceremony, and ending with an epic after-party in the heart of New York City.

Each guest who purchases a ticket will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite Jewish activist, helping to spotlight those making a real impact in defending and uplifting Israel from the diaspora. The event will raise funds for ZAKA Search and Rescue, one of Israel’s most heroic and selfless organizations. With thousands of dedicated volunteers, ZAKA works tirelessly to provide dignity to victims of terror attacks, disasters, and tragic emergencies.

Their mission goes far beyond rescue—it’s about honoring the dead, supporting the living, and giving closure to grieving families in their darkest hours. This year, we honor those in the diaspora whose voices and actions have defended Israel with strength and compassion.

This is more than just a party—it’s a movement of unity, memory, and purpose. Come dressed to impress, ready to celebrate heroes, and be part of something truly meaningful.
