Hanukkah Gala in Kyiv

This Hanukkah, Project Kesher Ukraine brought 80 Ukrainian Jewish women together for an inspiring Gala evening in Kyiv, celebrating resilience and community. After 5 long years, this gathering united community and friends from across Ukraine, showcasing the vibrant network of support Project Kesher fosters – from Lviv to Kharkiv, Odessa to Kyiv.

As they reflected on the past year, the PKU team celebrated their achievements and recognized 12 outstanding women for their enduring contributions. Special awards honored five exceptional members for their accomplishments in 2024 across various categories, from Volunteer to Mentor of the year.

In the face of continued Russian assault on Ukraine, the Gala Evening was a sparkling reminder of the strength and joy found in community, leaving every guest with cherished memories and the sweet spirit of Hanukkah.
