Dandi is the ‘Tzofah Shlicha’ for the 2011/12 movement team.
What is your full name?
Daniella (Dandi) Hardy
How old are you (you can refuse to answer!)?
18
What is your position in the office team and can you let us in on any inside plans you may have for this year?
I am the youngest Shlicha for FZY from the Jewish Agency. I am also a Shlicha for the Tzofim – the Israeli scouts and “twin movement” of FZY. My plans for this year are to further strengthen the ties between FZY and the Tzofim in London and Israel by different cooperations, while also focusing on Hadracha (Leadership) and Hasbara (Israel Advocacy) development in FZY. I am also very passionate about social action and hope to bring more of that to FZY.
Do you have any nick-names?
Dandi, Danni
What football team do you support?
Hapoel Ramat Gan
If you had to pick one person from throughout history that you look up to and respect more than anyone else who would it be and why?
I am not sure I can narrow this down to one person, but I will give the name of Janusz Korczak who I believe is an inspirational educator and mentor.
If you could have one band or artist on your MP3 player who would it be?
It is just cruel to ask me to pick only one! But if I have to I guess that right now it will be the Israeli artist Rona Keinan. She is absolutely brilliant and for the past 6 months I can’t stop playing her music.
Who do you think will be the craziest person in the office this coming year and why?
Dena because she is simply CRAZY and so hilarious
Give us a final message for all the FZY-niks this year
This is more than ever the time for all of us to unite and stand up for Israel. It is a great privilege for us to be a part of a strong Zionist youth movement at these crazy times when the whole world is changing. It is also our duty to protect and support Israel to the best of our abilities when its existence is being questioned by so many. Together we really can make a difference and create better Hadracha, Hasbara, Tzedakah and Israeli experiences.
