Mittleman was presented with the “Ally of the Year” award for her commitment to supporting a proactive and positive pro-Israel agenda on campus.
“Patti Mittleman is always looking for new ways to get students involved in pro-Israel activism, and consistently reaches out to key campus leaders to present them with opportunities to become more engaged. The achievements at Muhlenberg College would never have been possible without Patti’s support and leadership,” said AIPAC President David Victor.
The award was presented during the annual 2008 AIPAC Policy Conference, an event that brought together more than 6,500 pro-Israel advocates, including more than 1,200 students from 363 campuses and all 50 states. “Ally of the Year” awards were also presented to outstanding campus and high school professionals from Prozdor at Hebrew College and Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity.
Consistently ranked as the most influential foreign policy lobbying organization on Capitol Hill, AIPAC is an American membership organization that seeks to strengthen the relationship between the United States and Israel. For more than 50 years, AIPAC has been working with Congress to build a strong, vibrant relationship between the U.S. and Israel. With more than 100,000 members across the United States, AIPAC works throughout the country to improve and strengthen that relationship by supporting U.S.-Israel military, economic, scientific and cultural cooperation.
