Netzer<br />
In Nisan (Pesach Time) Netzer Australia launched an<br />
attempt to get back in touch with its bogrim reaching as<br />
far back as those who went on the Shnat program in 1977!<br />
The reaction has been remarkable.<br />
As part of the venture the past bogrim have filled<br />
out an online form in which they let us know what they<br />
do today, whether they married their Netzer love (many<br />
have!) and if Netzer has impacted their post-movement<br />
life. We have had truly memorable responses, and I<br />
wanted to share just a few of them with you.<br />
Evan Lever who went on Shnat in 1995 and<br />
subsequently made aliyah wrote: Through my time in<br />
Netzer I gained valuable leadership and life skills that I use<br />
daily in my working life as a CEO and in my family life with<br />
my kids. Oh yeah, also made Aliyah which I suppose has<br />
has the most major influence on my post movement life!<br />
A little closer to home, the outstanding Kim<br />
Rubenstein who went on Shnat in 1983 wrote:<br />
“I am now President of the ACT Jewish Community<br />
and Netzer and my experience in Israel was foundational<br />
to my community involvement from then onwards!”<br />
When asked if Netzer had a significant influence on her<br />
post movement life, Aliza Denenberg (Shnat 2001) said:<br />
Yes! I would not be where I am today or who I am today<br />
without Netzer. I think I am in my job way more because<br />
of the skills I learnt through Netzer than what I learnt at<br />
Uni!<br />
These are just a few of many entries that have been<br />
streaming in over the last few weeks. The message is clear;<br />
