ELI President Eran Zimrin named to Jerusalem Post’s 50 Most Influential Jews of 2026 for his transformative leadership in child protection across Israel.
Zimrin was recognized at No. 39 under the shared banner "Guardians of Israel," alongside prominent leaders including Eli Bin of Magen David Adom, Dubi Weissenstern, and Chantal and Marc Belzberg of OneFamily. The honor recognizes Zimrin's visionary leadership of ELI and his commitment to protecting vulnerable children and families across Israel.
Following the legacy of his late mother and ELI founder, Dr. Hanita Zimrin, Zimrin has expanded the organization's reach and clinical impact. Under his leadership, ELI operates school safety programs reaching over 100,000 students, maintains a network of over 100 active therapists, and delivers direct intervention and trauma therapy to children affected by physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. ELI expanded its treatment capacity by almost doubling its treatment rooms in 2025. This expansion allowed the organization to double its available therapy hours for 2026. ELI was also awarded Candid's 2025 Platinum Seal of Transparency.
"Being named to The Jerusalem Post's 50 Most Influential Jews list is a deeply humbling recognition, not just for me, but for the entire team at ELI and the dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to safeguard Israel's children," said Zimrin. "Carrying forward the legacy of my mother, Dr. Hanita Zimrin, remains our driving force. This honor strengthens our resolve to ensure every child has access to protection, care, and the therapeutic support needed to heal and thrive."
