As we gather with family and friends this holiday season, all of us at the Greater Aventura Democratic Club want to extend our deepest gratitude to you — our members, supporters, neighbors, and partners.

Your dedication, your energy, and your continued belief in our mission have sustained us through a challenging and consequential year.


Because of your support, our club has grown stronger, more engaged, and more determined than ever.

Each meeting attended, each call made, each conversation held, and each contribution — large or small — has helped build a foundation for the future we all want to see.


Looking ahead to the new year, we do so with genuine hope and renewed determination.

The encouraging developments we’ve witnessed in recent months — increased engagement, shifting public sentiment, and growing momentum — give us reason to believe that change is not only possible, but within reach.


But achieving meaningful progress in the 2026 elections will require more than optimism.

It will demand action, commitment, and a united community working together.


That’s why we invite you to stay connected, deepen your involvement, and continue supporting organizations like the GADC.

With your continued partnership, we can expand our impact, strengthen our outreach, and help shape a brighter, more equitable future for Aventura, Miami-Dade, and beyond.


From all of us at the GADC, thank you for standing with us.

We wish you and your loved ones a joyful, peaceful, and inspiring holiday season — and a new year filled with purpose, progress, and hope.


Together, we can make the change our community deserves.

WASHINGTON – Following the return of the 20 remaining Israeli hostages taken by Hamas on October 7, 2023, Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) CEO Halie Soifer released the following statement:

“Today marks a moment of long-awaited relief, joy, and celebration as the remaining living hostages were returned to Israel. JDCA is celebrating the release of all 20 living hostages and eagerly awaiting the return of all 28 deceased hostages, and is grateful to President Trump for making it possible with his 20-point plan for peace. After 738 days, the return of the hostages creates an opportunity to finally end the war in Gaza and begin the difficult but necessary work of rebuilding Gaza and ensuring a brighter future for Israelis and Palestinians.

“Since October 7, Israelis and Jews around the world have endured unimaginable pain, loss, and fear. We continue to mourn the more than 1,200 murdered on October 7 and in captivity, as well as the IDF soldiers who sacrificed their lives in Gaza, and innocent Palestinian civilians whose lives were lost. Rebuilding trust and restoring hope will be an essential part of the path forward – one that requires compassion, accountability, and a shared commitment to peace.

“Today marks the beginning of what will require a broader, integrated effort to lay the foundation for rebuilding in Gaza, including the demilitarization and relinquishing of power by Hamas. Once a final agreement is reached on the next phase of this ceasefire, the United States, Israel, and regional partners must immediately scale up humanitarian aid and work to rebuild Gaza, while ensuring Israel’s lasting security. The only path to durable peace is one in which Israelis and Palestinians live side by side in two states with dignity and safety for all, and JDCA supports efforts toward that end.”
