Oren Kashi

Oren had the pleasure of joining the Moishe House in Great Neck in February 2010. This came after meeting the two other residents at a Moishe House shabbaton and shortly thereafter realizing that he and the other two residents are fourth cousins, and have only met thanks to Moishe House. Oren currently works as the organizational powerhouse and spiritual guru of Moishe House Great neck. Thanks to a wonderful supporting staff of the other residents we have all been able to throw together some amazing events and programs. On the side, Oren does most of the gardening, cleaning, and organizational duties of Moishe House Great Neck and was reportedly rated as Great Necks most eligible bachelor.


Joseph Yadgar

Joe Yadgar is a man of great intensity and life. Never before has such a man graced the dirt and water of this Earth. He is over joyed to be a part of Moishe House and quite simply a part of life.


Nathan Yadgar

Nathan Yadgar was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, and resided in Great Neck, New York for the past four years. He completed his undergraduate degree from Hofstra University in Political-Science with minors in Middle-Eastern Studies and Economics. Nathan grew up in a home that contained a very strong Jewish identity. His parents, of Middle-Eastern origin, taught him to be proud of his roots at a very young age. Throughout his schooling, he attended a Jewish Day School, and got involved with Jewish organizations such as NCSY in high school. This leadership experience showed when he began university. At Hofstra, Nathan created an Israel advocacy club called EMET, which stands for Education for Middle-Eastern Truth. Today, EMET is one of the most active clubs at Hofstra, and chapters have been created both in Long Island and beyond. Nathan was also very much involved with the student Government where he served as a senator for two years, and Comptroller for one. Nathan then served as the campus coordinator for the Greater New York Region of Hasbara Fellowships, an Israel activism organization, and brought his experiences in Israel activism to students across the New York region. Nathan now works at Jovani Fashions in Manhattan, New York, but is still very active in the non-profit Jewish world. Nathan is very excited to now be apart of Moishe House in Hoboken and would like to foster and be a part of the next generation's Jewish leaders , especially during these most important political times.
