A new young Jewish leadership program will launch with a reconstruction campaign in Israel’s North. The first initiative of the Center for Leadership Initiatives, funded by Tulsa, Okla.-based philanthropist Lynn Schusterman, will be a $1.5 million project that “will bring 500 young Jewish adults from around the world to northern Israel,” a release said. “Participants will help repair damage inflicted during the current conflict.”
