Jonah Mandelbaum

Jonah Mandelbaum, the son of Holocaust survivors, has been in the Hudson Valley for more than 35 years. He immigrated to the US from Israel in 1970 and settled in Warwick where he established MJJ Builders. Along with his wife Donna, they work to provide safe affordable homes.

Jonah gives much of his time to Orange County and is a longtime supporter of our Jewish Federation, where he is an honorary Board member. In addition, he has held seats on many other Boards including the Orange County Water Authority, the Office of the Aging, Senior Housing Authority, and several foundation and hospital boards. He helps veterans with PTSD.

His motto is: "Help people while they're alive - better than saying good things about them when they're dead!"
