About

Degel Ami

Degel Ami is inspired by the movement of Rav Avraham Yitzchak Hakohen Kook זצ”ל, Israel’s first Chief Rabbi. He aspired to establish “Degel Yerushalayim” to promote cultural, educational and community development for the Jewish people and the Land of Israel.

For the past three decades, we have been fortunate to meet a great deal of people in so many walks of life dedicated to proactively contributing to the building of the Jewish Nation and fulfilling the legacy of Rav. Kook. We are happy to network on your behalf and facilitate meetings and other initiatives on your behalf. From business to real estate, travel to Aliyah, investment to philanthropy, we know the right people to help you accomplish your goals.
