Adriana Bacman Halac
I grew up in Argentina in a deeply Zionist home, where attending Jewish school, participating in youth groups, traveling to Israel, and witnessing countless gatherings of families preparing to make aliyah were simply part of everyday life. My husband’s parents’ philanthropic passion, which guided ours, left the names of my children engraved on the Wall of Donors of The Hebrew University in Jerusalem, among other institutions.
That passion for Jewish life only deepened as I grew older. My husband, Edgar, and I became active lay leaders in our community, serving at Centro Unión Israelita, the Hebraica JCC, and the Israelita San Martín School in our hometown of Córdoba. Our roles ranged from being Board members, Secretaries, Co-Presidents of the School PTA and chairs of numerous projects to improve the facilities of the small, but vibrant community that we are still very connected to.
