A full tenure served

JUDY Lowy (pictured) has stepped down from the Moriah College board of directors after serving her full tenure of 14 years.

President Stephen Jankelowitz paid tribute to Lowy’s enormous contribution and her “passion for Jewish education”.

“Her unwavering belief that Jewish children belong at Moriah College is second to none,” Jankelowitz said. “This dedication to Jewish education was embodied in the pivotal role Judy played in the creation of the Moriah Foundation, which she has led as foundation president since its inception in 2011. Under Judy’s watch, the foundation has raised more than $30 million to assist families to meet the cost of a Moriah education, and to assist students to experience life-changing events, such as the Israel Study Tour.

“There are many students who would not have had the opportunity to benefit from a Moriah College education without Judy’s tireless work.”

Following the annual general meetings of Moriah War Memorial College Association and the Moriah War Memorial Jewish College Association Limited, the composition of the board of directors for the ensuing two-year term is: Stephen Jankelowitz (president), Robbie Blau (deputy president), Dani Sher (treasurer), Warren Jacobson, Dan Kramer, and Daniel Sekers.

In addition, Teri Esra, Oliver Freedman, Mark Leigh, Rina Michael (honorary secretary) and Jacqueline Scheinberg continue their terms until the next AGM.

Past president Giora Friede was elected a life patron, while Ian Kern, Suzanne Morris and Carl Reid were elected life governors of the companies.

Simon Wilkenfeld was elected as a life member. Wilkenfeld was elected to the board in May 2011 and served his maximum term of 10 years.
