A gala evening was recently held to mark a decade of love and cooperation between partners and friends from both sides of the ocean. The event was both festive and moving.  Representatives of the Partnership of Hadera-Eron and the partner communities in the Southeastern U.S., which consists of many hundreds of partners, gathered in early March at the Performing Arts Building in Pardes Hanna-Karkur. Together they marked a decade of this Partnership which connects between continents and people. 

Some 40 of our American friends who contribute their time, hearts and money arrived to celebrate with us. That evening, everyone's happiness, excitement and energy were at peak levels. Local artists, singing groups and dance groups from all corners of the local communities and from each Partnership community took the stage. "Partnership Together" was the theme that dominated the evening. A wonderful decade such as this fills us with hope and anticipation as we enter a new decade.
