We will celebrate 20 years of NewGround with a conversation between our two honorees, each of whom model leadership with steadfastness and compassion.

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.
