Our projects

Our current project report as of July 2026

We maintain a scholarship programme and support educational institutions in five countries (Israel/Palestine, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda and Germany).

Scholarship Program for students from Palestine

Promoting education and training is a way to achieve greater peace in the world. Education gives people self-esteem and the ability to see the world from other people's perspectives. Those who have acquired special skills and knowledge through education can help others. Those who help others will also be helped themselves. Where else is this more important than in the crisis region of Israel/Palestine? Since our foundation was established, we have awarded scholarships primarily—but not exclusively—to Palestinian students from the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Our projects in Uganda

Uganda is one of the poorest countries in the world, located in East Africa. The average life expectancy of people living in Uganda is currently under 17 years. Millions of Ugandan children attend school, but by no means all of them. It is particularly important for young girls to go to school, as this helps them develop self-esteem and take control of their own future. In Uganda, our focus is on combating poverty through education. Less poverty also means more peace in the long term. In addition to school fee scholarships, we promote school development and work to improve the quality of school education in this country.

Support of young musicians from Israel

Music is one of the fundamental forms of expression in every culture. It is difficult for us to imagine striving for greater peace in the world without engaging with other cultures. From this perspective, too, it is important to us to support young musicians from other cultures around the world. We are in contact with the Hassadna Music Conservatoire in Jerusalem, which is renowned for its support programme for musically gifted children and young people from Ethiopian refugee families. This programme has produced young musicians whom we support with scholarships for their music studies. We also support young Palestinian musicians.
