I got involved with the Technion. There was an, an ATS talk at my synagogue, and a woman who was there in attendance who I’m friends with said, “Hey, we have something in the gift shop you might be interested in.” And it was a, a modern interpretation of the Technion logo. And I had it framed, and I put it up in my office.
And some months later, my mother was at my house and went into my office, and she said, “Do you know your grandfather was a very early donor to, to the Technion?” You know, I had this weird feeling that once I got involved, that this had been in my bones, and apparently it was, and this brought it full circle for me.
