AUCKLAND: Fundraiser for Hadassah Hospitals Jerusalem: March 30
Israel Focus Group – fundraiser for Hadassah
30th March 2025 1.30pm
514 Remuera Road.
Please join us for a visit to the new Auckland Hebrew Congregation site to. You will be taken through the synagogue and the recently opened beautifully and symbolically landscaped Holocaust Memorial Garden. If afterwards you want to bring your own trowel you can plant your pre-ordered bulbs in the Hadassah Memorial Garden to remember the 1.5million children who perished in the Holocaust.
Purchase of 5 bulbs is $20
Security requires pre-registration with Trish and though entry is by donation, we need pre-purchase of bulbs prior to the visit.
Unfortunately this timing coincides with the Pre-Passover sales and preparations at the Deli so we cannot provide you with more than water, light liquid refreshments. We are not charging an entry fee but any donations will go towards our Hadassah NZ Paediatric Examination Room at the new Gandel Rehabilitation Centre and because Hadassah International NZ is a registered charity, donations are eligible for a receipt and tax rebate.
Please make online payments to
HINZ bank a/c number: 01-0258-0149902-00
Reference: “Your Name” & donation or bulb+donation
For acknowledgement and a receipt please send an email with your name to treasurer_newzealand@hadassah.org
This event is organized by Israel Focus Group. Any views expressed by IFG are there own, and may not be held by NZFOI.
