MATAN

Matan is honored to share that our Executive Director, Meredith Englander Polsky, has been selected to the eighth cohort of Elluminate's Collective.

The Collective is a unique platform for Jewish women leaders to amplify their leadership, gain increased visibility, develop professional skills, grow their networks, and engage with philanthropists devoted to social change.

We are excited for Meredith to learn alongside and build relationships with the other incredible leaders in this year's cohort, and we look forward to bringing those insights back to Matan and the communities we serve.

Mazal Tov, Meredith!

Matan is excited to be at the SRE Network Convening today and tomorrow!
