The raised funds will be used to support local programs in Boston to preserve and enhance Jewish identity among Russian Jews, and to support Israel.
    Nearly 400 people gathered at the RJCF annual Gala 2013. This year's event was in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the "Freedom Sunday" march, when 250,000 Americans marched on the National Mall in Washington D.C.
    This year's event was attended by dozens of young Russian Jews, many of whom were either born in the States, or immigrated as toddlers, and had no knowledge of the massive movement that was responsible for their freedom. The theme of the Gala was chosen in part to educate them on their history and inspire them with this powerful example of Jewish unity.
