THE JOURNEY
CONTINUES WITH
BOOT CAMP 2.0
More than 800 young professionals have
graduated from Boot Camp in four cities,
and many of them have requested ongoing
education in order to continue learning about
Israel and developing their Jewish identity. So,
due to popular demand, we are in the process
of rolling out Boot Camp 2.0! Featuring
presentations, discussions, and workshops,
these sessions will dive deeper into content
covered during Boot Camp, address pressing
issues and current events, as well as offer participants
practical experience in ways to apply
their activism.

A FAMILIAR FACE JOINS
THE TEAM
As part of our increased engagement in established
markets and westward expansion,
ZOA’s FFT hired Daniel Brooks - a Boot
Camp graduate and long-time volunteer - to
join as a part-time associate director.
Born and raised in Queens, New York,
Daniel received his bachelor’s degree in communications
from Boston University, and
is currently a human resources manager at
a Manhattan law firm. Daniel is the founder
and current Vice President of 3GNY, an
educational non-profit organization for
grandchildren of Holocaust survivors, whose
mission is to educate diverse communities
through sharing family histories and lessons
of the Holocaust. He has extensive experience
as an Israel advocate, having organized
pro-Israel demonstrations, spoken on panels
and written for the organization Artists4Israel.
Daniel is also a frequent op-ed contributor
to the Times of Israel. We welcome him to
ZOA’s FFT team!
