Lighting the way: Meet the next generation of Zionist leaders
JNF-USA and The Jerusalem Post honor 25 young ViZionaries who are using their voices, platforms, and influence to stand up for Israel and shape the future of Zionism
The Jewish National Fund-USA, in collaboration with the Jerusalem Post, has unveiled the prestigious ViZionaries program, honoring the next generation of Zionist leaders. Russell Robinson, CEO of Jewish National Fund-USA, commented that these influencers go above and beyond to support the land and people of Israel, coming from diverse backgrounds and utilizing platforms like social media to spread Zionist ideals.
These young leaders, ranging from chefs to singers to writers, are using their online presence to promote Zionism despite facing significant dangers. Robinson emphasized the importance of these influencers in breaking down barriers and fostering unity among the Jewish people. He noted that some of these leaders belong to other faiths, including Christianity and Islam, and they all share a commitment to Zionism.
The ViZionaries program, according to Danielle Hankin, JNFutures National Chair, helps young leaders feel accomplished and showcases their impact, bridging gaps between different communities and cultures. Robinson was optimistic about the future of the Jewish people, praising the intelligence, philanthropy, and engagement of this new generation of leaders.
