Do you believe in the power of education and knowledge to set people free? Do you want to see new generations inspired by their Jewish heritage?
This Rosh Hashanah, our 8,000 Jewish day school students urgently need to hear you answer affirmatively and resolutely.
In 1993, Shimon Peres a”h told the World ORT Congress “we have to emphasise education – both scientific and Jewish – as a major challenge for the future”. The future is now.
If we are to continue offering children a quality education that gives them a head start in the labour market while placing their feet firmly on a foundation of Jewish values then we must invest in their schools.
At World ORT we’ve been making a difference for 136 years. You can make it 137.
Read our appeal and learn how your support can help our 8,000 school students in the Former Soviet Union or donate now.
