I am pleased to announce that I am riding in the 2019 Israel Ride.
I will be biking from Jerusalem to Eilat, approximately 275 miles, exploring Israel and learning about the work of two innovative organizations, the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies and Hazon which both work on creating a more sustainable world for all of us. The Arava Institute brings together Arab and Jewish Israelis, Jordanians, and Palestinians in the Negev to study how to solve environmental issues in the Middle East. Hazon raises awareness about environmental issues in the U.S. The ride takes place from November 5th through 12th, 2019.
I have committed to raise at least $4000 towards this cause, and your contribution at any level is greatly appreciated. You may donate online or if you prefer writing a check, please write it out to Friends of the Arava Institute and mail to me at Mark Frisch, 1941 Birchwood Avenue, Wilmette, IL 60091
Let me know if you have any questions or want more information. Thanks for your support!
Mark
