The Young Leadership Division Explores Miami on a Mini-Mission

The Young Leadership Division, Federation's under-45 connection, recently gathered a group of young Jewish leaders for an inspiring tour of Federation partner agencies in Miami. Led by Network Campaign Chair Alexandra Lehson and Network365 Co-Chairs Leah Aaronson and Yosef Shwedel, they visited the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach, the JCS Kosher Food Bank and the Michael-Ann Russell JCC, witnessing firsthand the local impact of the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign. Many of the participants are new to Miami and looking for ways to connect with and help serve the Jewish community. The group left motivated to continue their work with Federation.
