The Jewish Agency for Israel
Esther Renzer is the co-founder and international president of StandWithUs, an Israel educational organization founded in 2001, now with offices worldwide in five continents.
SWU seeks to empower the next generation and supporters of Israel, of all ages, to proudly tell Israel’s story and counter misinformation and antisemitism—through their educational materials, innovative programs, fellowships, conferences, social media platforms, educational videos and missions to Israel.
Esther has focused her social advocacy career on seeking big-picture solutions to issues of Jewish peoplehood, Israel and environmental issues. Prior to her work for StandWithUs, Esther served on several school boards: the Moriah School of Englewood, NJ, Sinai Akiba Academy in Los Angeles, and on the executive board of the Shalhevet High School in Los Angeles. She has spearheaded environmental educational initiatives, recycling programs, and Earth Day events on the East Coast and in Los Angeles. Previous to entering the activist sector, Esther ran her own marketing and promotional firm.
