Representatives from the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) paid a special visit to the Tidewater Jewish Community earlier this spring. The group included Arnon Mantver, director of JDCIsrael, Sandy Katz, executive director of JDC International Initiatives, Danny Pins, chief financial officer Africa & Asia and special projects JDC-Israel, Eli Bentata, JDC-Tevet division for Young Adults, and a non-JDC visitor, Israeli Ran Nachum, who is the director/conductor at Kiryat Yam Music Conservatory.
In addition to meeting with individual community members, the group also met with the Israel and Overseas Committee of the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater to provide updates on Annual Campaign allocations and to discuss new Tidewater, JDC, and Israeli partnering opportunities.
