On Sunday, Cavs Coach David Blatt was scheduled to help chair a dinner for Israel Bonds, a brokerage firm that sells treasury bonds for the Israeli government.
The dinner will honor KeyCorp CEO Beth Mooney and PNC Bank Regional President Paul Clark, both of whom have supported Israel Bonds. The event will also recognize Mark Sack and his wife Aviv, longtime friends of Blatt who are active in several local groups, including the Jewish Federation of Cleveland.
(Cleveland.com)(Ed: Also a “Pro-Palestinian” group is planning a protest also covered as a separate story in the Plain Dealer.)
Before leading the Cleveland Cavaliers against his former team, Maccabi Tel Aviv, this Sunday, coach David Blatt will headline a tribute to Israel Defense Forces troops injured in the war in Gaza.
Non-profit group Friends of IDF will host the reception Sunday morning at The Q. The group has teamed with Blatt and his former Israeli basketball club for the event, which will include honoring a dozen IDF soldiers wounded in action, according to a news release from FIDF.
