WHAT<br />

MOVES US?<br />

Turning theory into practice. Transforming<br />

prototypes into patents. Translating research<br />

into cures. Since 1925, American Friends of the<br />

Hebrew University (<strong>AFHU</strong>) has connected the<br />

passions of Americans with innovation at the<br />

Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU). From<br />

medicine, to agriculture, to energy, to tech,<br />

our support has yielded success—including<br />

seven Nobel Prizes in one decade.<br />

ABOUT THE<br />

HEBREW<br />

UNIVERSITY<br />

OF JERUSALEM<br />

E<br />

instein. Buber. Freud. Bialik. Weizmann.<br />

Some of the world’s most renowned<br />

intellectuals and innovators set out to establish<br />

a first-class university in Israel. They fulfilled<br />

their aspirations when the Hebrew University<br />

opened in 1925.<br />

Einstein believed the success of Israel would depend<br />

on its ability to produce influential intellectuals and experts.<br />

Lawyers, doctors, philosophers, and scientists combined their<br />

smarts and ideas to build the foundation for the university.<br />

Ultimately, the work produced by these brilliant and ingenious<br />

scholars created the blueprint for Israel.<br />

Today, HU stands as one of the finest research institutions<br />

in the world. It is home to inspirational educators<br />

who provide knowledge and brilliant scientists who create<br />

cutting-edge innovations that improve and save lives.<br />
