Founded in 1999 as ISEF’s Young Leadership division, Next Generation boasts hundreds of young Jewish professionals from diverse cultural backgrounds, brought together by their shared love of Israel and commitment to ISEF’s mission.
“We are dedicated to bringing a dynamic spirit of unity and a fresh perspective to tackling the educational problems facing Israel today,” says Katrin Yaghoubi Sosnick, founder and former co-Chair of the Young Leadership Division, and currently serves on ISEF’s Board of Directors. “In addition, we offer members great opportunities for social and professional networking.”
Today, ISEF’s Next Generation provides exciting and enriching social programming for Jewish young professionals throughout the NY tri-state area.
Our motivated young leaders have gone on to serve on ISEF’s Board of Directors and various committees, pursuing their unique interests within the organization and developing as leaders.
ISEF’s Next Generation hopes to mobilize motivated New York professionals in support of ISEF’s scholarships and education program.
“ISEF upholds our collective commitment to intellectual development and curiosity, which has been one of the primary gifts of the Jewish people,” says Joshua Benaim, Next Generation (below).
