Passionate Community Advocate
Advocacy is Philanthropy to Myra.
Giving back is at the core of who Myra is as a passionate and vocal philanthropist. She seeks to bind the connection we all have with each other treating safe communities where everyone receives a quality education, and holds a feeling of belonging. For example, in her work as the National President of the Women’s Campaign for Jewish National Fund (JNF), Myra spends her time energizing women to be advocates for fundraising within the organization. She travels both the United States and Israel often, visiting JNF funded projects and speaking about their value back home.
Education Advocacy
Myra believes it takes a village to raise a child. She believes we cannot rely solely on our schools to educate our children to be well-rounded humans. Myra believes that education begins in the home, and it is our duty as parents to give back to our children’s school communities to show them the value of giving early in their lives.
“I find that being involved in philanthropy lifts me up as a person and makes me feel empowered as a woman and as a leader and provides the best example I can to my children of how to live in society.”
– Myra Chack Fleischer
