“I am so pleased to write about my experiences with the Jewish Heritage Alliance. I have been following the organization and their presentations regularly online during the pandemic. Recently my community, the Okanagan Jewish Community in Kelowna, BC, Canada, co-hosted an educational presentation, which we were able to promote across Canada, allowing our members and friends to become familiar with both our Community and the JHA. Fantastic organization by Michael Steinberger and phenomenal presentation by Dr. Isaac Amon. The event was well received by attendees as evidenced by their tremendous feedback. Keep up the important work, JHA.”

Jewish Heritage Alliance seeks to preserve and promote Jewish heritage. To do so we are creating a Strategic Partner Alliance bringing together a tapestry of people and entities committed to issues, events and concerns relevant to Jewish Heritage. We present topics and bodies of work with “outside the box” thinking intended to educate our diverse audience and bring pertinent, often unique information and events to the fore.

Leading our current efforts is a new platform exploring the Saga of Sefarad, one of the great periods of Jewish history, a period of immense achievements followed by tragedy, and its impact on the Jewish People and the world. This was a watershed moment in the annals of Jewish History, yet it receives scant attention compared to other consequential Jewish historical events.
