As 2026 begins, we thank the donors whose commitment carried ISEF and its students through a complex and demanding year.

Your support gave students stability when they needed it most. It funded scholarships, mentorship, leadership programs, and steady guidance across campuses. It helped students stay focused on their studies, grow as leaders, and move forward with confidence, even when circumstances were uncertain.

Because of you, ISEF remained a constant presence in students’ lives. You strengthened their sense of belonging, reinforced academic persistence, and helped turn potential into progress.

Thank you for standing with our students and our community. Wishing you health, strength, and hope in the year ahead.

Happy New Year!

What a year of growth it's been!

Across Israel, ISEF expanded its reach and strengthened the support around each scholar. Through scholarships, academic mentoring, leadership development, and structured community frameworks, ISEF scholars received financial support to complete their studies, while gaining stability and a place to connect with others like them, especially during moments of uncertainty.

ISEF worked across campuses and regions, including the north and south, to ensure students from diverse communities had consistent access to opportunity. First generation scholars navigated higher education with mentors by their side. STEM students, educators, medical students, and researchers studied with focus. Alumni remained part of the ecosystem, mentoring new scholars and reinforcing a cycle of responsibility and leadership.

This is what progress looks like when support is intentional and long term. If you wish to help more students grow through ISEF’s programs, you can be part of what comes next.

This is how leadership is built. Through consistency, accountability, and care.

The Nesher Academy is a local ISEF initiative that supports students from the city of Nesher as they transition from school into higher education. Many are first in their families to pursue academic degrees. Many do so while carrying financial pressure and military or national service. It provides structure, mentoring, and a steady community so students do not face this transition alone.

The academy brought together academy coordinators, mentors, and program leaders to align on the year ahead. One of the most powerful moments came from an academy graduate who returned from active service to speak with the mentors. He shared what it meant to study, serve, and carry responsibility at the same time. His presence made clear that success grows when students know they are not carrying the weight alone.

Community is what keeps ISEF students enrolled, grounded, and willing to ask for help in academic spaces that can feel unfamiliar or overwhelming. Your support funds the structures that turn education into stability and commitment into future leadership.

The first steps toward leadership often happen quietly. A decision to take responsibility for others.

The ISEF mentoring program brings students into classrooms where they guide teens, strengthen motivation, and open doors to higher education. The first training session focused on understanding the program, setting expectations, and building skills in communication and public speaking.

Our students shared a clear goal. They want to grow as mentors, keep a positive atmosphere, and reach every teen with patience and presence. Their growth reflects ISEF’s mission to prepare future leaders who serve their communities with empathy and commitment.

Your support helps them continue this work. Every training session becomes another step toward stronger role models and wider access to education.

Gratitude defines this season, and hope defines what comes next.

During this year's Hanukkah celebration, ISEF students shared their wishes for the future.
Some spoke about exams and careers. Others spoke about peace and family. Each response reflected quiet determination and trust in the path ahead.

Held at the Fiverr offices in Tel Aviv, this gathering connected learning with possibility.
Experiences like this help students imagine themselves in professional spaces they are preparing to enter through education.

We wish you a final Happy Hannukah and thank you for making these moments possible. Your support sustains students long after the candles are lit.
