NFTY President Reflects on White House Visit
Aliza Slavin Gazek is the 2009-2010 President of the North American
Federation of Temple Youth (NFTY).
As you know, this year I've served as President of NFTY, the North American Federation of Temple Youth. NFTY encompasses 10,000 Reform Jewish teens from all across the US and Canada, serving as the youth movement for the Union for Reform Judaism (URJ). So many moments from my Presidency have made me smile since I was handed the gavel last June. Now, as I reach the end of my term, I'm overjoyed to have attended the President's reception at the White House honoring Jewish American Heritage Month. The event was thrilling, and I'm excited to share everything. Here's my story.
