DEAR HADASSAH FRIENDS, It is our profound honor to invite you to Hadassah’s 100th National Convention in Jerusalem.

Yes, the time has finally come to be TOGETHER IN ISRAEL ‫ יחד בישראל‬to celebrate our commitment to the lifesaving work of Hadassah and experience the joy we will undoubtedly feel the minute the airplane wheels touch down at Ben Gurion Airport!

Together, we will feel the wonder of our beloved homeland, Israel, and all the miracles that have happened there.

Just consider how the founding members must have felt when they attended the first Hadassah National Convention in Rochester, New York, in June 1914. There is no doubt that they shared the sense of PRIDE and PURPOSE that embodies the work of Hadassah — the very same emotions we will all feel as we visit our projects and meet the people whose lives we’ve touched.

The Convention Brochure and Registration Kit contains information about the overall program, individual tracks, and pre- and post-convention extensions that are available for you to customize your time in Israel.

One thing is guaranteed: Whether you come for a few days or a few weeks, you will leave enlightened and inspired to continue your support for Hadassah and Israel.

Let’s put new meaning to the words “Next Year in Jerusalem”

!‫לשנה הבאה בירושלים‬ Let’s celebrate, TOGETHER IN ISRAEL, at Hadassah’s 100th National Convention.

With pride, passion and purpose,

Rhoda Smolow Hadassah National President

Joyce Rabin National Convention Chair

HADASSAH 100TH NATIONAL CONVENTION

I irrevocably grant to Hadassah the right to stream, post, photograph, film and/or otherwise record, by any and all methods now or hereafter known, my image, voice and/or likeness in connection with the Convention and to license, distribute, exploit, disseminate, display and/or otherwise use my name, voice and/or any stream, post, photograph, image, audio and/or visual recording or likeness in which I may appear or any utterance or statements I may make during the course of my participation in the Convention or any Convention-related activities, including any photographs, images, audio and/or visual recordings I may provide to Hadassah, or any portion thereof, in any media throughout the world, including but not limited to, all digital media such as websites, emails, virtual meeting platforms, and social media, any number of times, in any and all manners, and by any and all means now or hereafter known, for any advertising, trade, fundraising, promotional or for any other purpose, without approval or any compensation unless required by law.

56 Together in Israel

I agree that this Release and any and all issues related to this Release and/or the Convention are to be solely and exclusively governed by and enforceable in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving regard to its conflict or choice of law provisions. I agree that the State or Federal courts located in the City of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine disputes arising from, related to, or in connection with, or in any way involving the Convention or this Release, including the applicability of this clause or the validity of this Release, and I consent to the exercise by such courts of personal jurisdiction over me and waive and agree not to assert any objection or defense based on lack of personal or subject matter jurisdiction or venue. I agree to waive my rights, if any, to institute or prosecute suit in any forum other than any State or Federal court located within the City of New York.

I agree to pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses which may be incurred

by Hadassah in the enforcement of or attempt to enforce this Release, whether by action of law or otherwise. This Release is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the State of New York in favor of Hadassah, and if any term or provision of this Release is declared invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining terms and provisions of this Release shall remain unimpaired and in full force and effect. In the event that any provision of this Release is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable. Failure

by Hadassah at any time to enforce any obligation by me, to claim a breach of any term of this Release or to exercise any power agreed to hereunder will not be construed as a waiver of any right, power or obligation under this Release, will not affect any subsequent breach, and will not prejudice Hadassah as regards to any subsequent action.

I acknowledge that I have read and understand this Release and that it shall be binding on me on behalf of myself, my family members, next of kin, heirs and representatives. This Release, together with the registration forms for the Convention, contains the entire agreement between the parties to this Release. If there is any inconsistency between the registration forms for the Convention and this Release, this Release shall control. This Release, together with the registration forms for the Convention, supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings and negotiations regarding its subject matter.
