Ivan Levy Hara on ‘A Great Adventure’ as BBYO president Ivan Levy Hara, the 16-year old son of Jaqui and Fernando Levy Hara of The mckakfa Group, is learning what it takes to become a leader of his peers. Seven months ago, BBYO Regional Directors Ben Racman and Alex Bolotovsky came to Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center to speak about BBYO, an organization Ivan knew nothing about. Within the week, meetings were set up to introduce Ivan to the BBYO programs and goals: to provide teen leadership, ownership and empowerment to Jewish teens, and to guarantee that the next generation of Jews in the Diaspora will thrive. Sitting around the conference table and first learning of the challenge presented to him, Ivan thought, “What did I get myself into?” But he soon realized what a ‘great adventure’ he was on with his friends. The group has formed The Chavayah Chapter of BBYO, set up the Board, planned and run two events and are well on their way to becoming an official BBYO chapter.
