About 200 residents within the vicinity of Gaza have attended a Hanukkah celebration. The families watched the entire training session and finally met the players and the coaching staff. Members of the Ayanot youth village, representatives of the EuroLeague One Team project have packed gift packages for the club’s guests and sponsors, including FOX, Marcello Incellini, Franchi Real Estate, PMI and Azrieli Mall in Tel Aviv.

“It’s fun to make these kids and their families happy, they are experiencing more difficulties than we all are”, said Yovel Zoosman. “I’m happy to have the privilege to be here with them, to make happy as much as possible, usually during the year we don’t have many events like these and when we put our hearts into it”. 

John DiBartolomeo also addressed the event saying: “It’s great we love to do it, as you know we’re kind of in a middle of a hectic schedule but we’re able to plan for it for the fans and their families, it’s really special and I’m happy to be a part of it”.
