Cash grant for Ethiopian-Israeli high-school students completing high-quality matriculation — boosting community pass rates.

About Rishon LeZion

Rishon LeZion is home to a large, active Israeli-Ethiopian community, historically concentrated in the Ramat Eliyahu neighbourhood — originally built as absorption housing and now a long-standing community centre. The neighbourhood is at the heart of urban-renewal efforts, alongside a growing second-generation presence across the city.
