Jewish National Fund-USA is proud to announce the appointment of longtime partner (donor) Barbra London as the new President of its Central New Jersey Board of Directors. A dedicated community leader and visionary philanthropist, London brings fresh energy and unwavering commitment to advancing Jewish National Fund-USA’s mission to build a strong and vibrant future for the land and people of Israel.
The president of Consultants in Geriatrics, which provides consultations and education in geriatric care, London has been a Jewish National Fund-USA Central New Jersey Board Member since 2016. She is driven by a love for Israel and a passion for activism, stemming from an intimate understanding of Israel’s importance to the global Jewish community.
“Our connection to Israel is about so much more than just a tiny place on the map,” she said. “It lies in the heart of our history and the promise for our future. As a Zionist, it’s my responsibility to nurture our heritage and ensure that Israel not only survives this latest threat to our existence – it must thrive for generations to come.”
London’s leadership begins amid Jewish National Fund-USA’s One Million Voices for Israel campaign and its most ambitious plan to shape and secure Israel’s future—building new communities and creating the most livable towns and cities in Israel’s North and South to attract 800,000 new residents while spearheading learning, travel, and leadership initiatives so that youth, families, and adults stay connected to the land and people of Israel for life.
Largely in part due to the organization’s Circles of Impact, where every project and initiative supports the organization’s vision of spurring population growth in these crucial regions, London is in the perfect position to change Israeli lives.
“Jewish National Fund-USA’s ripple effect is far-reaching,” added London. “Our work is not just about constructing buildings or launching programs; rather, it is intrinsically designed to create lasting change that strengthens Israel’s future.”
