Our Federation Hosted a Delegation of Israeli Knesset Members Last Week
Our Federation hosted a delegation of Israeli Knesset members last week as part of its visit to select communities throughout the U.S. The goal was to increase their understanding of the organized American Jewish community, as well as the depth and breadth of Jewish communal life and the commitment of its members. The delegation met with leadership, students and teens throughout our community in day schools, JCCs, synagogues, the Kosher Food Bank and the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach. Visitors included Tzachi Hanegbi (Knesset Majority Leader), Meir Cohen (Yesh Atid), Michal Rozin (Meretz), Nachman Shai (Zionist Camp), Revital Swid (Zionist Camp), Josh Shwarcz, Secretary General, The Jewish Agency for Israel, and Rebecca Caspi, JFNA Senior VP for Global Operations, Director General JFNA’s Israel office.
