Additionally, OJCF is pleased that Jonathan Singer will be stepping into the role of Chair-Elect. Jonathan is a fifth-generation Portlander with deep roots in the community, where he remains active in civic and community affairs including on the boards of the Mittleman Jewish Community Center and Portland Jewish Academy. Before joining Barg Singer as a partner, he practiced law in the Washington, DC office of O’Melveny, a global law firm, and in the Portland office of Miller Nash Graham & Dunn. In his spare time, Jonathan enjoys listening to and playing jazz, traveling the world and to the Oregon coast, watching the Blazers, and spending time with his family.
“OJCF is deeply honored that Lindsay, Glen, Sharon, and Jonathan will be serving our community and the foundation in these increased roles,” says Tara Siegman, Vice President of Philanthropy. “They demonstrate the words of Rabbi Tarfon in Pirkei Avot: You are not expected to complete the task, but neither are you free to avoid it. They are joining a board of leaders working activity to complete the task of improving our corner of the world.”
