An Enduring Commitment to Your Jewish Leadership

Wexner Graduate Fellowship Alumni benefit from ongoing mentoring and guidance from the Foundation faculty and professional staff and maintain an important connection with the entire fellowship and Foundation community. Throughout their professional lives, Fellowship Alumni participate in leadership institutes, enrichment programs, and community-building activities. Fellowship Alumni also benefit from connections to alumni of our other leadership programs – Wexner Heritage Program (for volunteer leaders in North America) and the Wexner Israel Fellowship Program (for mid-career Israelis in government or social service).

Over 290 Alumni of the Graduate Fellowship now serve as professional leaders in synagogues, Hillels, day schools, national, international and local Jewish organizations, Jewish foundations, universities, and in new social entrepreneurial ventures in the Jewish world. The Foundation takes an active role throughout North America in promoting importance of the professions represented in the Fellowship, and in recruitment and retention activities in support of these professions.

Wexner Graduate Fellowship Alumni meet biennially for institutes centered on themes relevant to modern Jewish life and their professional development. In addition to peer teaching, Alumni study and dialogue with leading scholars, practitioners, and experts in the fields of Jewish life and leadership development. The Wexner Foundation is committed to creating a continental and international web of Jewish professional leaders working together to foster life-long leadership growth and to strengthen Klal Yisrael.
