1 Year of Catalyzing Jewish Climate Action
Friends,
This week we mark one year since the launch of Adamah- the merger of Hazon and Pearlstone. Together we have built a strong foundation and clear strategy to achieve our mission, with over 120 amazing staff members and over 50 outstanding lay leaders on our national board and plethora of committees and advisory councils guiding our work. Just a few weeks ago we gathered for an immersive staff retreat at Pearlstone, and the energy and inspiration was palpable.
There are moments in this work where I look around and wonder how I got here, and how lucky I am that I get to be in this community. I had 2 of those moments this retreat, singing “One Day” around the campfire and singing about the magnificence of the ocean during our talent show. There is so much power in singing together.

We’ve come a long way and together we will go even farther – because we’re just getting started, and the best is yet to come.
B’Shalom – In Peace,
Jakir Manela
Chief Executive Officer
