Haim Dahan Speaks at Jewish Funders Network 2011 about Raising Awareness in Education…

by Ari

I was lucky enough to attend this year’s Jewish Funders Network (JFN) International Conference in my hometown and Ofanim’s US home base of Philadelphia. This year’s JFN was absolutely incredible, and a real showcase of strategic projects promoted by leading Jewish foundations around the world. Next year I’m crossing my fingers to be able to attend this exciting conference again. Added bonus, JFN 2012 will be in Tel Aviv!

As a way to bring you into the action from this year’s JFN, here is a clip of our favorite philanthropist and Ofanim Founder, Haim Dahan, presenting on a panel about “Strategic Investments in Israeli Education.”  Please enjoy:

I was so moved by the transformative thinkers and social entrepreneurs and their inspiring vision for the future.  These are the types of visionaries we must support if we wish to see a stronger, more vibrant future for the next generation.
