A project that was first envisioned almost a decade ago, the Diaspora Action Kit has grown beyond the expectations of any of the authors and contributors who nurtured this project along the way. At it's very best, this project embodies Generational Leadership - the timeless contributions of those whose work would not only benefit themselves, but those who came before them, and those who would come after. A huge thank you to all of those who contributed to the creation of the NFTY Diaspora Action Kit:
