Feb. 8: Join Us for Friends of the IDF

The PTS Brotherhood is pleased to host Richard Mann, West Coast Director of Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces (FIDF), for a special event on Thursday, Feb. 8, beginning at 7:00 pm. The event will be in the Lillian Byer Social Hall at PTS.

Friends of the Israel Defense Forces initiates and helps support social, educational and recreational programs and facilities for the young men and women soldiers of Israel who defend the Jewish homeland.

FIDF also provides support for widows and orphans of fallen soldiers. FIDF support includes; building, maintaining and operating 17 modern and sophisticated facilities; establishing and renovating hundreds of clubrooms and fitness rooms on Israeli Defense Force bases; and the constant caring for each and every IDF soldier.

Richard will discuss what FIDF does and how it supports Israel's soldiers. We are hoping for a guest appearance from a visiting Israeli soldier who will talk about the experience of serving in the IDF. Coffee and dessert will be served.

There is no cost for current Brotherhood members to attend this special event. Non-members will be asked for a $10 donation at the door. Please RSVP to Marc Belsky, belsk5 {at} comcast.net.
