Joseph Hershkowitz

Rabbi Joseph Hershkowitz joined Pesach Tikvah in 1988 as director of development and community relations. Being the parent of a developmentally disabled child, Rabbi Hershkowitz has a unique advantage when it comes to connecting with those in need of Pesach Tikvah's services. His exceptional personality combined with his ability to get things done, have earned him a well deserved nomination on Good Fortune's top twenty list of Orthodox Jews who have made, and continue to make, a mark in a variety of endeavors.

With his strong will to make a difference in the lives of children with developmental disabilities, Rabbi Hershkowitz personally started some of Pesach Tikvah’s innovative programs. The annual Orlando trip was the brainchild of Rabbi Hershkowitz, and he continues to make this trip possible each year. He is the driving force behind the children’s after school program, as well as the summer day camp at Pesach Tikvah.
