Robert Kasirer

Robert Kasirer is the Manager of the Kasirer Family Office, where he built a national real estate investment and management company with a portfolio spread across 12 states. He also serves as President of the Kasirer Family Foundation (“KFF”), which supports educational institutions and Jewish causes. Through the foundation, contributions have been directed to universities, schools, camps, community programs, and various Jewish organizations that strengthen identity, learning, and engagement.

In 2022, Robert founded the Neshamah Project Inc. in the United States, along with a related nonprofit in Israel, to create the Neshamah Platform and Neshamah App. These initiatives were designed to bring music, Jewish learning, prayer, podcasts, videos, and short interactive experiences into one unified digital space. The platform supports individuals and communities by offering customizable areas where organizations, synagogues, schools, camps, on-campus groups, and content creators can present their material alongside a broader library.

His family history is shaped by resilience. His parents were Holocaust survivors; his mother endured Auschwitz, and his father was sent to a forced labor camp. Most of their relatives were killed. They came from a small village in the Carpathian Mountains, now part of Ukraine. After liberation, they married and lived in Austria while awaiting visas to the United States. He and a sibling were born there, and another was later born in Los Angeles after the family immigrated.

When the family arrived in Los Angeles in 1954, Jewish life in the city was still developing. Kasirer's parents helped establish educational institutions, supported synagogues, and extended their involvement to Jewish organizations in New York and Israel. Their dedication profoundly influenced him. At 13, he attended a Jewish boarding school in New York, continuing both religious and secular studies through university.

He later attended New York University and a law school in New York. After passing the bar, he moved to Los Angeles, formed a law firm with two associates, and later joined a national firm before partnering with his father in real estate. After his father passed in 2005, he continued expanding the company. His sons and son-in-law now oversee day-to-day operations while he serves as Chairman.

He has been married for 48 years, has four children, and has 13 grandchildren. He enjoys skiing, hiking, and traveling, experiences that continue to shape Robert Kasirer's life and purpose.
