The Masa Israel Alumni Fellowship is an opportunity for a select few outstanding alumni to represent Masa Israel Journey in their home communities and on a national level.

This exclusive program provides Fellows with unmatched leadership training as well as opportunities for personal and professional development and networking with Jewish communal leaders.

Each fellow will attend the Jewish Federations of North America General Assembly (GA), as well as his or her choice of a major national Jewish conference. Through these events and exclusive shabbatonim, the Masa Israel Alumni Fellowship creates a community of practice and the future leadership of the Masa Israel Alumni Community.

Over the course of the next year, each Fellow will create and implement a unique impact project in order to increase alumni involvement or help recruit new participants to Masa Israel programs in his or her community.

Stay tuned over the next few months, as we highlight an Alumni Fellow every week.

Here are this year’s Masa Israel Alumni Fellows:

Zoe Manor

Born in Jerusalem, raised in Colorado, building a creative career in LA, until October 7, and rising antisemitism sent Zoe Manor back to Israel, in the middle of a war.
She joined a Masa Israel Journey program as a soft landing, and a spur-of-the-moment offer to edit audio grew into Talking Unfiltered, a podcast exploring dating, bureaucracy, community, faith and identity from both native-Israeli and diaspora perspectives. In this conversation she reflects on why she'd rather live under rockets than as "a shell" of herself, what native Israelis still don't understand about antisemitism abroad, and how she made peace with her accent, recalling her brother's line that everyone who built this country once spoke Hebrew with one.
