Help Plant a Garden in Israel at IDC Herzliya and Support Scholarship Students in Loving Memory of Naomi Spivak, Z”L
For those who knew Naomi, she radiated positive energy and Zionism everywhere she went. For those who know her daughter Michelle, the apple does not fall far from the tree.
Despite fighting through surgeries and treatments at Sloan Kettering in New York, Naomi lost her life to cancer in December of 2015, shortly after Michelle completed her MBA at IDC. A year later Michelle visited IDC to look for a way to commemorate her mother’s name in the holy land and that is when she met Eyal, a Major in the Israel Defense Forces.
On May 23, 2018 the couple is getting married by the beach in Tel Aviv, Israel. Many loved ones will be far away and one person will be especially missed—the Mother of the Bride, Naomi Spivak.
For those who cannot attend and would like to honor this special time, please consider a charitable donation to IDC Herzliya. The contributions will help plant a garden on campus in her mother’s name and ultimately go towards students in need of financial support.
