DIVERSITY. EQUITY. INCLUSION.
AEPHI SIGMA STANDS IN SOLIDARITY DURING THIS DIFFICULT TIME AS WE WITNESS BOTH HEARTBREAK AND HOPE IN THE ONGOING CONFLICT IN ISRAEL THE DEVASTATING CONFIRMATION OF THE DEATHS OF SHIRI BIBAS, HER YOUNG SONS ARIEL AND KFIR, AND PEACE ACTIVIST ODED LIFSHITZ HAS SHATTERED THE HOPE THAT THEY WOULD RETURN HOME SAFELY THEIR LIVES, FILLED WITH LOVE AND PROMISE, WERE TRAGICALLY CUT SHORT IN A NIGHTMARE NO FAMILY SHOULD EVER ENDURE.
WE FIND SOLACE IN THE SAFE RETURN OF SEVERAL HOSTAGES, INCLUDING OMER WENKERT. AFTER 505 DAYS IN CAPTIVITY, HE HAS FINALLY REUNITED WITH HIS LOVED ONES. HIS RESILIENCE, OPTIMISM, AND ABILITY TO UPLIFT THOSE AROUND HIM SERVE AS A POWERFUL REMINDER OF THE STRENGTH OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT. ALONGSIDE HIM, WE ALSO WELCOME BACK ELI SHARABI, OR LEVY, AND OHAD BEN AMI, THOUGH THEIR RELEASE IS MARKED BY THE PAIN OF LOSS AND THE TRAUMA THEY ENDURED.
AS A SISTERHOOD, AEPHI SIGMA REMAINS COMMITTED TO STANDING WITH THOSE AFFECTED AND ADVOCATING FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF EVERY HOSTAGE. WE CANNOT REST UNTIL THEY ARE ALL HOME. #BRINGTHEMHOMENOW
