Recognize the important work of AMIT, which supports and operates over 100 schools and programs as part of Israel’s only government-recognized network of religious Jewish education.

Bessie Gotsfeld recognized the value and importance of a religious education for children in Israel and thought ahead how best to turn the idea into reality. In the 9th Mishna of the second chapter of Pirkei Avot, Ethics of the Fathers, Rabbi Shimon highlights the virtue of the person who anticipates and is blessed with foresight.
