Daniel Mush Meyer, mover of opportunities

The Jerusalem Post in its “Realizing Be-Gurion’s vision” column recognizing “Movers and shakers in Israeli society” named Daniel Mush Meyer who leaves his job after 11½ years as executive director of the International Young Israel Movement. He is resigning “to allow new blood and new energy to carry the organization forward.”

“Among the highlights of his tenure at IYIM, as far as Meyer is concerned, have been the opportunities to work with a great team to bring joy to hundreds of deaf and hearing-impaired children, youths and young adults in Israel, including an annual bar/bat mitzvah program; reaching out to countless couples to encourage them to sign prenuptial and postnuptial agreements that have saved so many from unbearable anguish; supplying and dedicating many Torah scrolls to IDF and Border Police bases; working closely with communities in Sderot and Karmiel, and much more. He is particularly appreciative of the various program directors who include: Rabbi Chanoch Yeres, Dr. Rachel Levmore, Rabbi Alex Yeres, David and Yael Spanglet, Igal Bracha, Rabbi Ephraim Schwartz and Rabbi Yedidya Atlas, as well as all his faithful office staff who worked so selflessly for the benefit of others.”
