Featuring the Legendary David Broza

David Broza is an internationally renowned Israeli singer-songwriter, recognized for his dynamic guitar performances and humanitarian efforts. His signature sound brings together the influence of Spanish flamenco, American folk, rock and roll, and poetry. Social justice and peace advocacy are embedded in Broza’s work; his 1977 hit song “Yihye Tov” remains an Israeli peace anthem. With over 40 albums released, many of which are multiplatinum, in English, Hebrew, and Spanish, Broza continues to tour globally both as a solo musician and with his various musical projects.

Honoring Jessica Lissy

Every day, Jessica guides our students as a Middle School Judaic Studies Teacher. In recognition of her ongoing impact, a scholarship fund is being established in her name to expand access to the transformative Senesh experience. As she beautifully reflects, "Ensuring equity and access to this Jewish community and to an education that gives life meaning, purpose, and connection is incredibly important to me." Her teaching and legacy will continue to inspire and support future students for years to come.
