Joseph Gitler is a graduate of Yeshiva University and Fordham University Law School.
After making aliyah in 2000, he worked for three years as Director of International Sales & Development for a family software business.
He founded Leket Israel in 2003 after witnessing significant food wastage in Israel at a time of rising poverty.
Joseph’s vision and steady hand have led the organization from a simple, one-man operation to Israel’s largest food rescue organization.
