The opening event of the Steering Committee of the Haifa-Boston Partnership was a celebration of 30 years to the Partnership's establishment. Some 50 donors and professionals from the Jewish community in Boston arrived in Haifa for the event, held annually as an international conference with five different seats (same as the number of the organization's committees and fields of activity).

The donors and members of the Jewish community in Boston met with dozens of volunteers, professionals and partners from Haifa and Israel. The purpose of the Steering Committee is to plan the budget year and the organization's investments for that year. It is an opportunity to examine the progress of the various projects, confer, and to formulate together the recommendations of the Haifa-Boston Partnership to the Jewish Federation, regarding the future directions of the enterprise.
