Imbar Slavat
Program Manager
I am originally from Toronto, where I was deeply engaged in Jewish communal life and developed a strong foundation in Jewish identity, leadership, and community building. After moving to Israel, I continued to build on that passion through both professional and volunteer work, including my involvement with Israel Food Rescue, where I helped bring hundreds of volunteers to Israel to support agricultural efforts. These experiences strengthened my commitment to meaningful engagement and hands-on service, particularly within diverse and globally connected Jewish communities. I now bring this perspective to my work with B’nai Bitachon, supporting Jewish families in the military through innovative, relationship-driven programs that foster belonging and leadership.
