Israel Tennis Centers Foundation to Hold Fundraising Event on August 17

The event aims to inform locals about the current conflict in Israel and how the non-profit organization is helping Israeli youth.

The Israel Tennis Centers Foundation (ITC), a non-profit organization aiding in the development of Israeli youth through tennis, will hold a fundraising event on Sunday, August 17 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at a private home in Westhampton Beach.

Israeli players and coaches will fly to the U.S. to meet residents of Westhampton Beach and nearby communities who are interested in learning more about the current conflict and how the ITC centers have worked to keep children safe and secure.

“Our event in Westhampton Beach will really give all those who attend a chance to hear some incredibly inspiring stories from the children themselves,” said Jacqueline Glodstein, Vice President of Global Development for ITC. “It’s all about serving a better future for youth of all backgrounds, and we need to support them in every way we can for their sake and for the whole of Israel.”
