In this role, Gadi is on the frontlines of MERCAZ's important work fighting for Conservative/Masorti values on the board of KKL/JNF, which allocates over $1 billion annually both in Israel and across the Jewish world and owns and manages 13% of the land in the State of Israel. A passionate activist, Gadi is an active member of a Masorti community in Jerusalem that has found itself at the epicenter of a closely watched battle regarding the ability of Masorti Jews in Israel to fully and safely exercise their religious rights.
