"The sound of the shofar raises the spirits of all – religious and secular, Right and Left, “Bibi supporters” and “Kaplan protesters” alike. The blasts make no distinctions and erect no barriers. Their sole purpose is to open the hearts of all Israel. In an era of internal fracture, that is a message of extraordinary urgency." Read this important Rosh Hashana message from our CEO Ilan Geal Dor in today's The Jerusalem Post (fb)

Our fearless leader, Orit Adato, was interviewed recently by the The Jerusalem Post. Definitely worth a listen! "Adato rejects the common metaphor of Israel as a melting pot. Instead, she sees Israeli society as a puzzle where each piece maintains its unique identity while contributing to a cohesive picture. "You don't find two components that are exactly the same," she says, describing how leadership means building unity from diversity rather than erasing differences. This philosophy drives Gesher, the organization where Adato now serves as chairperson. Founded over 50 years ago, Gesher has evolved from youth programs into a sophisticated operation training Israeli leaders to navigate the country's most challenging internal conflicts." (fb)
