ILLUMINATIVE STATEMENT ON THE CRISIS IN THE MIDDLE EAST
At IllumiNative, we are devastated by the violence, the taking of hostages, loss of life, and the suffering of innocent people as a result of the Israel-Hamas war. We have had numerous conversations internally and externally with our partners to determine how IllumiNative can best use our voice to have a positive impact on this international humanitarian crisis given our U.S.-focused mission.
