Please join us as we welcome Rabbi David Kaufman back to UH. He will speak on Current Events in Israel and Across the Region. At 6:15 p.m., bring your own dinner and join us for a relaxed meal. Beverages and dessert will be provided. If you prefer, just come for the talk which will begin at 7:00 p.m.

Rabbi Kaufman has been the rabbi of Temple B’nai Jeshurun in Des Moines, Iowa since 2003. You may remember him growing up in our congregation, the son of Drs. Millie (z”l) and Robert Kaufman. You can find him on the confirmation picture wall in the class of 1987.

Since his years at UH, Rabbi Kaufman has become an expert on the Middle East and a leading advocate for Israel. He is the president and co-founder of We Are For Israel, a multi- national Israel advocacy organization and the parent of Rabbis for Israel, a group of rabbis from around the world who believe in a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with a focus on maintaining the security of the Jewish state. (See WeAreForIsrael.org)

A sought after speaker, Rabbi Kaufman has addressed numerous religious and advocacy organizations and is well-known for teaching to interfaith audiences about the Middle East, Israel, Judaism and Jewish History. Expert on the history and causes of Antisemitism and committed to combating hatred and prejudice, Rabbi Kaufman works with a number of anti- genocide and interfaith organizations. Because of his advocacy, Rabbi Kaufman was asked to serve on the Advisory Council of the US Global Leadership Coalition 2015.
