The Hebrew University opened its doors in 1925, twenty-three years before
the State of Israel was established.

Chaim Weizmann, Albert Einstein, Martin Buber and Sigmund Freud were among the University's founders... leaders, thinkers, and humanitarians whose genius inspired their vision of a great university whose mission would have no limits or borders. The founding charter declared that the Institution would be open to every qualified man and woman irrespective of religion, race or nationality.

The University has played an integral role in Israel's first 50 years. Through the Canadian Friends, your support will help the Hebrew University strengthen Israel and world Jewry for the next 50 years.
