Last weekend, WJC NextGen attended the StandWithUs Focus on Israel conference in Los Angeles, California. The weekend was filled with insightful sessions, including two by WJC NextGen Director of NextGen Yoni Hammerman. Yoni spoke on thinking locally and acting globally to make tangible change in one's local Jewish community, highlighting some of WJC's activities, like the #WeRemember campaign. He also gave a TheordoreTalk (StandWithUs's version of a TedTalk) exclusively to university students, sharing how they one day can pursue a leadership role in a Jewish non-profit, just like Yoni did.
The conference was a great success!
