DEVASTATING FIRE at the Israel Innovation Fund HQ

Hi Everyone,

 

On February 21st, we at The Israel Innovation Fund suffered a massive and very serious fire at the office headquarters and absolutely everything was burned down. Our CEO Adam Scott Bellos and his dog Momo got out just in time but nothing else was left.

 

The fire started in the middle of the night, at 02:30 AM. Everything is heavily burnt and completely destroyed along with all of Adam's personal belongings, family heirlooms including an afgan blanket that was passed down from his late grandmother before her passing, all of our Zionist artwork, many cases of wine that were to be used for our Wine on The Vine program, this and so much more is gone.

 

According to the first part of the investigation, the fire was caused due to an issue with the old electric box that was not maintained and started the fire. Everything is currently under investigation until we get a final answer as to how to proceed.

 

On Feb 23rd, TIIF hosted a Young Leadership Wine & Cheese event that featured the best of Live Israeli Music, Art, and Wine. We decided NOT to cancel the event even though the office was the venue where we were meant to host the event. 

 

The office was home to many such events, a place to promote Zionism, Israeli culture, and the best of Israeli wine.

 

This is why we need your help:

The office is gone, we've lost so much, everything from memories to equipment to invaluable pieces of Israeli art. We are asking that you help us rebuild The Israel Innovation Fund and bring it back from the ashes. Every single donation made will go directly to support The Israel Innovation Fund and our mission to continue supporting a stronger Israel.

 

 

Thank you so much for all your love and support!

 

❤

TIIF Team
