ScholarShip Information
Dear Friends,
The Maccabee Foundation is united with Israel and stand together to assist the youth in Israel. By providing the young students scholarship, they’ll be able to attend varies colleges. These young students are our Soldiers, either after or before ARMY. It’s in merit of the young Israeli Soldier’s courage and bravery that Israel exists and we have an amazing home that called ISRAEL. As part of the Jewish Nation, we are all obligated to help them to achieve a higher education.
One of Israel’s sources of pride is the enormous number of inventions and innovations that have taken root on its soil over 68 years, sits on approx 8,000 sq. miles, with a population of only 7.4 million. Despite challenges of geography, size and diplomacy, the ever-churning Israeli mind has brought us drip irrigation, the Iron Dome, the pillcam endoscopy, the cherry tomato, the electric car grid, the USB flash drive, Azilect which is a drug for Parkinson’s disease, MobileEye, The Intel 80C88 and much more.
Did you ever wonder why there are so many Israeli inventions? Some hints to this mystery might come from the fact that its population seems to be educated, creative and entrepreneurial.
In proportion to its population, Israel has the largest number of startup companies in the world, the third highest rate of entrepreneurship – and the highest rate worldwide among women and among people over 55. All of these translate to one of the highest per capita rates of patents filed and to an impressive list of Israeli inventions.
