Our Team

Adam Schwartz
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Email: adam@alynus.org
I spent most of my career in Jewish communal service. I served as president & CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Phoenix, assistant executive vice president & campaign director at the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ, vice president of Israel and global philanthropy at the Jewish Agency for Israel and director of development at Partners in Torah. I also have for-profit experience as a financial advisor and planner for nearly 10 years.
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to bring my experience and passion to AFAH. I am looking forward to working with current, past and future leadership to build on our success and grow in the future so that we can generate increasing support for the hospital and, more importantly, the children who are the beneficiaries.

DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATE

I come from a diverse background in nonprofit and community-focused roles with experience maintaining donor communications and conducting research for development efforts. I have a strong connection and commitment to Israel and recently led a 30-person two-week educational trip there.
I look forward to using my previous experiences to help grow the American connection to ALYN Hospital. The story of two high school students from the US working with AFAH in a curriculum to create a solution for an ALYN child is an example of how impactful ALYN can be and inspires me to grow these types of efforts.
