ABOUT US
“Degel Ami”, founded by Aaron Pollack ז”ל and Eliyon Shemesh, is the result of almost two decades of dedicated work of two friends and partners who had a very special relationship that was built on Torah and Chesed. To quote one of Aaron’s last messages, “We have a lot of important work to do for Am Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael and Torat Yisrael.”
“Degel Ami” is inspired by the movement of Rav Avraham Yitzchak Hakohen Kook זצ”ל the first Chief Rabbi of Israel. He aspired to establish “Degel Yerushalayim” which would help promote cultural, educational and community development for the Jewish people and the land of Israel.
“Degel Ami” enables you to direct your tax-deductible donation from the USA and Canada to Israeli charities dedicated to benefiting the Jewish people and fulfilling the legacy of Rav Avraham Yitzchak HaKohen Kook.
