Board of Directors and Officers
Who governs Metanoia
Metanoia is governed by a board of three directors, who also serve as its officers.
Shraga Israel
Founder and Chief Executive Officer. Director.
Ophir Israel
Chief Financial Officer. Director.
Maria Maryel
Secretary. Independent director.
All three directors are related. Shraga Israel and Ophir Israel are members of the same immediate family. Maria Maryel is a more distant relative who falls outside the family-member definitions in California and federal tax law, and she serves as an independent director. Directors receive no pay for serving on the board.
A board this small and this close is where many young charities begin, and we do not think it should stay that way. We plan to add directors from outside the family and will list each one here when they join.
