The Voice of Hind Rajab follows Red Crescent volunteers as they fight to rescue a six-year-old girl trapped in a car under fire in Gaza. Inspired by real-life events, the film won the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival. RSVP here!

NewGround is partnering with Jewish Story Partners, Nefesh, and New Israel Fund to hold a screening and discussion of Holding Liat on December 3 at Laemmle Glendale. If you missed our screening of Holding Liat last month, this is a great opportunity to see this powerful film. A conversation with Director Brandon Kramer, Producer Lance Kramer, Rabbi Susan Goldberg of Nefesh, Aziza Hasan of NewGround, and Joe Goldman of New Israel Fund will follow the screening. We hope to see you there. 

For the first time in our history, this program is open to applicants of all faith backgrounds, and also to all alumni of past NewGround programs as well as newcomers. To meet this moment, we ALL need to transform our leadership.  Application deadline: December 1

On Sunday, February 1, 2026, join us, once again, for a timely and significant gathering at the Skirball Cultural Center for NewGround's annual Trailblazer Forum. We will celebrate 20 years of NewGround with a conversation between our two honorees, each of whom model leadership with steadfastness and compassion.
