At Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, Hindu and Jewish leaders unite against prejudice and bias

Trump’s Florida getaway, Mar-a-Lago, came alive after leaders, innovators, and community advocates gathered for the first American Hindu-Jewish Congress (AHJC) Grand Gala — an evening dedicated to unity, interfaith dialogue, and the fight against prejudice.The event showcased shared values between Hindu and Jewish communities, focusing on compassion, inclusion, and mental-health awareness.Keynote speaker Lara Trump, the wife of US President Donald Trump’s third son, Eric Trump, addressed attendees at the historic venue in West Palm Beach, stressing the need for understanding between diverse communities.“AHJC fights antisemitism and anti-Hindu prejudice,” posted Ellie Cohanim, former US Deputy Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism, in support of the event. “Powerful Keynote Address by the incredible and unstoppable Lara Trump.”

Gala’s theme and key speakers

The evening also featured Lynne Patton, White House Director of Minority Outreach and Deputy Assistant to President Trump, who shared her experiences working on issues of diversity and representation. The gala’s theme was “Reimagining Wellness and Mental Health Through Innovation.”It encouraged participants to look beyond traditional approaches to well-being and explore compassionate, culturally sensitive methods of care. Among the featured speakers was J. Bradley Hilton, visionary entrepreneur, Chairman of the Hilton Family Office, and grandson of hospitality pioneer Conrad N Hilton. His address was focused on the intersection of innovation and wellness. “We’re entering a new era of medicine where people have the power to participate in their own healing,” Hilton said. “Next-generation wellness isn’t just about technology; it’s about restoring balance between body, mind, and purpose.”Hilton said how modern science and ancient wisdom could work together to improve physical health and emotional resilience. “When we restore health at the cellular level, we restore hope at the human level,” he added. “This is about creating a future where healing is accessible, compassionate, and inclusive.”The gala brought together medical professionals, philanthropists, and faith leaders, including Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, Dr. Kyu Rhee, and Michelle Stravitz, all of whom shared insights on mental health and social responsibility.Proceeds from the event will go toward AHJC’s initiatives aimed at combating bias and promoting interfaith collaboration, according to a press release distributed by EIN Presswire.
