The Israel Zionist Council, part of the World Zionist Organization, will present 17 "Heroes of Israeli Society" awards during a special ceremony at Bar-Ilan University, recognizing individuals and organizations whose work has strengthened Israeli society, national resilience, and unity during a difficult year.
Recipients include notable leaders and public figures such as U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee, Amir Peretz, Or Ben Yehuda, and Oz Davidian, all recognized for their contributions to resilience, mutual responsibility, and national support.
In the category of Humanitarian Aid & Community Volunteering, Joseph Project International was recognized for exceptional social and volunteer work advancing opportunities, strengthening communities, and assisting diverse populations across Israel.
The award recipients were selected by a special public committee headed by Israel Zionist Council CEO Yigal Brand, together with civic, educational, and public leaders from across the country.
Yigal Brand stated: "At a time when Israeli society is facing complex challenges, there are people and organizations who choose to rise and act out of a sense of mission, mutual responsibility and faith in the path forward. The recipients of the Heroes of Israeli Society award represent the beautiful face of Israeli society, the spirit of volunteering, resilience and unity that continue to move us all forward."
