ESRA MAGAZINE — ISRAEL'S COMMUNITY MAGAZINE is a unique and unusual publication. It is entirely written, edited, and proofed by volunteers. It has an editorial board which comprises an editor-in-chief, contributing editors, and over 50 writers in each issue, all on a volunteer basis, and many of them professional writers. The administration and solicitation of adverts are also done by volunteers.
