E38. From Investment Banker to Fruit Picker: The Indomitable Spirit that Keeps Israel Going

An interview with Moti Jungreis, former investment banker based in Toronto
5

When war broke out in Israel on October 7th, Moti Jungreis wasted no time in getting on a plane so that he could assist in the massive civilian relief and support effort. A former investment banker based in Toronto, Jungreis has split his time between Israel and Canada in recent years.

He spent today, Monday, harvesting fruit in farmer's fields just outside the closed military zone in southern Israel, adjacent to the Gaza Strip. And he has been doing so much more over the last two weeks. In the midst of the carnage and horror, it is people like Moti Jungreis who exemplify the Israeli spirit and allow us to hope.
