The Haredi College of Jerusalem - Jerusalem Foundation

The Jerusalem Foundation
and the Haredi College
The Jerusalem Foundation was established in 1966 by then Mayor Teddy Kollek, with a mission to
create an open, equitable and modern society in Jerusalem. The Foundation has left its imprint on
nearly every corner of the city, with nearly 4000 projects to its name. The Jerusalem Foundation
envisions a vibrant, modern, flourishing city, rich with culture, economic vitality and strong, caring
communities for all its residents. We seek to create a society that responds to the needs of all its
residents, which includes empowering the growing Haredi community in the city.
Recognizing that only through higher education will Jerusalem’s ultra-Orthodox population be
able to make a decent living and improve employment opportunities, the Jerusalem Foundation
decided to take the initiative to enable the establishment of a new campus for the Haredi College
of Jerusalem. The Foundation believes that the Haredi College is critical to the community’s
socioeconomic prosperity, which will narrow existing gaps with the general population.
The Jerusalem Foundation has taken upon itself the task of building the new college campus with
friends from Israel and around the Jewish world. In doing so, the Jerusalem Foundation rededicates
itself to all the residents of the city.
