Founded in Sydney in May 1936 by Ruby Rich (later Ruby Rich-Schalit MBE), the Friends of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem was established for the benefit of the Hebrew University. The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel's first university and a symbol of the cultural rebirth of the Jewish nation in its ancestral homeland, is a multidisciplinary institution of higher learning and research. We raise funds and encourage bequests in support of the University, both for specific projects and for general purposes. We provide a medium for the exchange of information and literature between Australia and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and we encourage and assist Australian students wishing to undertake study at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
