What is the ADL NextGeneration Advisory Board?

The ADL NextGeneration Advisory Board (NextGen) unites the next generation of philanthropic leaders committed to the mission of ADL – to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and secure justice and fair treatment to all.

NextGen connects individuals ages 22 – 40 with meaningful opportunities to contribute and advocate for the activities and programs of ADL. NextGen empowers young philanthropists to become ambassadors for ADL through a broad range of educational, community service, philanthropic and leadership programs and events.

What are the ADL NextGeneration Outreach Networks?

The NextGeneration Advisory Board Outreach Network (NextGen ON) provides personal, intimate opportunities for NextGen leaders to connect their friends and neighbors to learn about and become engaged with the mission and work of ADL in the New York/New Jersey Region.

The goals are to:

• Empower current NextGen leaders to serve as ambassadors for ADL in their communities;
• Hold content focused events that introduce ADL to those unfamiliar with its mission and work;
• Identify and cultivate prospective new NextGen Supporters; Glass Leadership Institute participants and
• Build centers of support for ADL throughout NYC and NJ neighborhoods.

NGAB ON hosts events with ADL experts, individuals who have been impacted by ADL’s work and/or other experts within areas of focus for ADL in accessible environments. These events can be held on any day of the week and in a variety of formats, including but not limited to breakfasts, lunches, wine tastings, Shabbat dinners, sports outings, and the like. The format of the events is intended to balance an opportunity to learn about ADL from experts within the fields of focus for ADL with the social and networking aspects of involvement in NextGen.
