NFTY 2020 North American Board Candidates Announcement

It is written in the Talmud “It is not the position that honors the person, but the person who honors the position.”

Teen leadership is one of the highest priorities within NFTY. It is what makes our movement so strong and unique. As such, there are many opportunities, on local, regional and North American levels, to be involved in peer-to-peer and adult-teen leadership experiences. NFTY is governed by a board of teen leaders who are elected to serve a one-year term. At NFTY Veida, we will elect our new North American Board members.

We are excited to introduce the candidates for the
2020-2021 North American Board

We encourage you to carefully and thoroughly read every candidate’s Bio and Letter of Intent, as well as take the time to watch each candidate’s speech. You can play a crucial role in choosing the next leadership of our movement by learning about the candidates and sharing your opinions with an official voting delegate of your region. As you review these materials, please be mindful that every candidate is qualified and has demonstrated tremendous dedication by entering into this elections process. We value every candidate and remember that they are an important part of our Kehillah Kedoshah (holy community).

If you have any questions, please contact NFTY President, Maya Levy nftypres@urj.org.
