11 Nov 2018 Book Online

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM

Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia
2100 Arch St, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103

In celebration of Israel’s 70th anniversary, Hazon Philadelphia and The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia invite you to a one day food summit to learn and share about food security initiatives in both Philadelphia and Israel.

Have you ever thought about living a greener life? Would you like to know more about where your food comes from? Do you worry for those who have trouble accessing nourishing food — including over 11,000 Jews in the Greater Philadelphia region — and have you wondered what you can do to make a difference? Then “Hungry for Change,” our upcoming conference on American and Israeli strategies for food security, recovery and justice, is for you.

On Sunday, November 11th, we’ll bring together luminaries from across the American and Israeli food system to discuss their work and their insights. The process of increasing food security, justice and reducing waste is complex, requiring the work of farmers, government officials, community organizations, social advocates, food pantries, restaurants and grocery stores. That’s why, through keynote addresses, panel discussions and tours of local organizations, Hungry for Change will consider food systems from every angle.

The cost of registration includes a kosher catered lunch. This program will comply with the Hazon Seal of Sustainability. A portion of your registration fee will be directed to food security programs in our region and in Israel.

The main program runs from 11:00 am – 6:00 pm. You are welcome to join us for for one of the four optional morning sessions, from 9-10:30 am. If you would like attend, please select a morning session option in addition to registration.
