“In May 2019, I received my MBA/MA from the Hornstein Program. I am now the Manager of Community Philanthropy at Hillel Ontario and my job includes creating a strategy for community engagement and giving, engaging Hillel alumni and working with Jewish students to raise funds for their local campuses. Hillel Ontario is the largest local Hillel in the world, comprised of more than nine universities, 40 staff and a network of 13,500 Jewish students, which gives me the opportunity to interact with a large audience and ensure a strong Jewish future in Canada!”
