About Rashi Foundation
Yeholot Association - Tafnit Program - Founded by the Rashi Foundation
Yeholot Association (Tafnit Program) was blessed, throughout the years, with the generous support of Rashi Foundation, which enabled the Program to grow, create partnerships and reach all these thousands of students who needed the power to instill their faith that "Every one is able".
Rashi Foundation is the latest chapter of an extraordinary Leven's family legacy, that was begun in Paris in the 1840's.
Gustave Leven (1912-2008), a French Jew, one of the founders of 'Source Perrier", and grandson of Narcisse Leven, founder of Alliance Israיlite Universelle and Mikve Israel, established in 1984 the Rashi Foundation, by merging and reorganizing family charity funds.
Over the past 25 years, Rashi has worked vigorously to realize the vision of a stable and prosperous Israel that draws its strength from a society in which each and every citizen can realize his or her innate potential. Rashi operates to reduce educational, social and economic gaps, by creating high quality infrastructure and possibilities to slef promotion in the geographic and social periphery in Israel.
The origins of the Foundation and the remarkable vision and generosity of the Leven family motivate Rashi and Yeholot's work today.
