From Social Need to Smart Social Investment
 | |
Past IVN Forum
|
Hundreds of thousands of Israelis from a variety of socio-economic and religious backgrounds took to the streets over the course of the summer, demanding social justice. The 2011 Israeli Social Justice Protests were the culmination of years of frustration and concern amongst the Israeli people. A common rallying cry at the demonstrations was the chant: "The people demand social justice!".
IVN's Social Venture Program, established in 2010, in response to the nation's need for change, generates social change through smart social investments. We are thrilled to inform you that on October 25th and 31st, we shall be entering the second stage of the Summer 2011 candidate selection process, in partnership with the Rashi Foundation and the Leichtag Family Foundation (LFF).
