Omer Shem Tov at Columbia University

Columbia/Barnard Hillel was proud to co-sponsor a special evening with former hostage Omer Shem Tov, along with the Jewish Student Association, Chabad at Columbia University, and many other student groups and organizations. Omer shared his story of being held in Gaza for 505 days and how he leaned on his faith to survive. We were honored to hear his story and deeply admire his strength and resilience.
