Last week, the Consulate General of Israel spearheaded a pop-up office in Seattle, where Israeli residents were able to conveniently access important Consular services without having to travel to San Francisco.
Housed out of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, and led by Consul for Consular Affairs, Noa Shapira-Maor and her staff, this week-long initiative was successful in connecting members of the community to services such as passports, notaries and more.
Having begun in 2017, this Consular-wide initiative has now transformed into tradition.
Without the support and generosity of Nancy Greer, President and CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle and Maxima Patashnik, the Federation’s Director of Government and Community Relations, and their staff this effort would not have been possible.
The Consulate General of Israel looks forward to continuing its pop-up Consular services within Seattle in years to come, and its dedicated year-round effort in San Francisco.
