Our work takes four forms.
1. Remembering
a once-thriving Jewish community in Eastern Europe
Since 2001, the Foundation
has been working on projects focusing on the story
of Jewish community of Oradea, a major city in northwestern
Romania. In place since 2003 is an extensive Web site,
a virtual world of the past and present of this community.
Please see OradeaJC.com.
2. Bringing
attention to the work of American poets and the value
of poetry in everyday life
REMproductions, the media group of the Foundation,
is developing a feature documentary film about poets
and poetry in the U.S. today, as well as shorter,
more narrowly focussed documentary works for the poetry
community and general public..
Please see www.PoetryMattersNow.org
3.
Exploring the Torah Scroll: the how's and why's of its
making, its holiness and its value to different faiths
REMproductions,
the media group of the Foundation, is developing a
feature documentary film with the working title “As
it Is Written: A sacred scroll comes into being” targeted
for completion in early 2016.
4.
Supporting
established charities and institutions financially
The Foundation makes donations
to established charities and non-profit institutions.
These include organizations whose focus is on: arts
and education; human rights; children at risk; refugees;
Jewish continuity. At this time proposals are accepted
by invitation only.
