Review for Innovation: Africa (iA), New York, NY, USA
I have been a volunteer with Jewish Heart for Africa since its inception and am proud to be part of such an important mission. Through fundraising galas and events Sivan Borowich and the JHA staff have provided valuable insight into the dire need for water, electricity and medicine in rural Africa. JHA's purpose is to facilitate development in rural Africa using clean, alternative technologies in order to fight climate change and provide for sustainable economic development. JHA purchases these technologies from Israel, stimulating growth within the Israeli economy while improving Israel’s image around the world. It has been an amazing journey to watch JHA grow and to watch the New York Jewish community grow with it. It is one of the few non-profits of the Jewish world that brings a connection to Africa while simultaneously supporting Israel. It bridges tremendous cultural gaps and addresses environmental causes all at once, showing our interconnectedness and ability to affect change. Sivan Borowich has pioneered a truly important mission through JHA and I hope to see it flourish well into the future.
