A huge thank you to ourAVI Title Sponsors!

Allied Voices for Israel (AVI)

Meet the generous sponsors behind our upcoming "United We Stand" events & our AVI Common Ground Ambassadorship


With our United We Stand events with Arab-Israeli advocate Yoseph Haddad a little over a month away, we wanted to take a moment to thank our generous title sponsors who are helping make it all happen.


Without their contribution, we would not be able to realize our dream of bringing Yoseph to FOUR major Canadian cities! Attendees will also hear from student leaders on campuses across Canada and incredible allies who are fighting antisemitism.

IsraeliMall.com is a startup founded by Michael Fromstein, a CPA with entrepreneurial experience and the CFO of a successful Toronto-based cloud company.

Utilizing a combination of a dedicated fulfillment house in North America and direct shipping from Israel, IsraeliMall.com ships products to customers throughout the continental United States and Canada within days of receiving orders.
