Newsletter No. 5/11


Dear Sikkuy Friends,

As I mentioned in a previous newsletter, Ali, Ron and I will be landing in New York on October 23 for two intensive weeks of meetings, speaking engagements and fundraising in the USA and Canada.

I have posted the general schedule on the right and wish to point out that there are six events at which Ali and Ron will speak and to which you are all invited (some request pre-registration).

In addition, many of our friends have asked to meet with us individually and host us in their homes - to introduce us to their friends and colleagues who want to hear more about Sikkuy's work for equality between the Arab and Jewish citizens of Israel.

There is a lot to report about how our work is having an impact and how the challenges before us loom greater than ever. There are new Sikkuy projects and accomplishments we'd like to tell you about.

Please be in touch if you would like to attend one of the presentations or set up a private meeting with us.

And as we approach the end of the year, it is a good time to remind all of our friends that there is still time to give your financial support to Sikkuy in 2011, most easily, by sending your donation, recommended for Sikkuy, to:
PEF - Israel Endowment Funds
317 Madison Avenue, Suite 607
New York NY 10017 USA

PEF will send you your tax receipt for the donation.
http://www.pefisrael.org/

We thanks all of our friends who have worked so hard to arrange the various meetings and programs that Sikkuy will participate in and who continued to give us their unstinting moral and financial support in 2011.

We look forward to seeing you soon.


Sincerely,

Carl Perkal
Director of Resource Development
