The Atlanta Israel Coalition (AIC) is celebrating our 2nd birthday. Watch this BIRTHDAY VIDEO to learn more about the Atlanta Israel Coalition.

Happy Birthday Atlanta Israel Coalition!

The Atlanta Israel Coalition was founded in late 2018 by a group of committed volunteers who strive to unite the pro-Israel community in Atlanta and beyond. As a non-partisan non-profit group, the AIC seeks to inspire and educate through a collective effort. Through inclusive educational and community events, the AIC unifies a broad audience, regardless of faith or political affiliation. The AIC is a gathering place for multi-faceted conversations that combat media bias, a connector to foster a spirit of cooperation amongst pro-Israel organizations, and a means by which to amplify our collective pro-Israel missions.

The AIC is proud of our achievements over the past two years. The AIC’s premiere event took place in January 2019 and an exclusive screening of “Black Forest”, a chilling Israeli documentary, which chronicles the brutal slaughter of two women, and the extraordinary survival of Kay Wilson. Most recently, the AIC hosted Naftali Aklum who enlightened us about Sigd, an Ethiopian Jewish holiday. In between, AIC has hosted or partnered on more than twenty Israel-related educational programs as detailed on our Facebook events page.

Our December 13 and December 20 webinars, Tour the Old City of Jerusalem This Hanukkah – A Free Live Virtual Tour and a Virtual Tour of the Old City of Jerusalem- A Closer Look were very special. The tours, led by David Sussman Israel Tours, were engaging for families and people of all ages. We walked through the streets of the Old City leading up to the Kotel, or Western Wall. We watched the official Hanukkah candle-lighting ceremony at the Western Wall.

During the pandemic, the Atlanta Israel Coalition has offered our programming through Zoom webinars at no cost to attendees. We could not do this work without the support of people like you. Thank you – and please don’t forget to make a donation in support of AIC’s work.
