West Orange's Adopted Hostage - Evyatar David
The community of West Orange has adopted Evyatar David and his family as part of the MirYam Institute’s Adopt-a-Hostage Campaign. Hailing from Kfar Saba, 23-yr-old Evyatar's passion for music, adventurous spirit, and warm personality have endeared him to all who know him. However, Evyatar's vibrant life was tragically interrupted by his harrowing kidnapping from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, leaving his friends and family heartbroken and yearning for his safe return.
Our goal is to support Evyatar's family in any way we can, and to raise awareness locally and globally in order to help bring Evyatar home.
