---- May 23, 2011 .... The Michael Cherney Foundation is continuing
in assisting various cultural, humanitarian and charitable projects
that are critical to Israel's growth. One of many projects dedicated
to Israel and keeping Jerusalem united is the publication of a
brochure by a non-profit, non-partisan organization "Keep
Jerusalem" which educates people about the importance
of a united Jerusalem under Israel sovereignty.
The Michael
Cherney Foundation, together with "Keep Jerusalem",
feels that there is an essential need to replace Islamic distortions
of historical realities with basic facts, which support Israel's
right to sustain Jerusalem as her united capital.
One organization
that enjoys continued assistance from the Cherney Foundation is
"Meeting Place" which is presently expanding its network
of training groups. The concept behind "Meeting Place"
is gathering different Israelis - secular and religious, men and
women - around classical Jewish texts.
In May of
2011 two new study groups were created consisting of a group for
the study of Jewish mystical texts - the book of Azriel and the
Zohar (which takes place in Jerusalem) and a study group which
is being held in a peripheral and somewhat underdeveloped city
of Lod, making it a significant educational and cultural contribution
to that area. Regular groups for study of the Talmud and tales
of Rabbi Nachman are continuing as well in Jerusalem.
Another activity
that "Meeting Place" coordinates is ascends to the Temple
Mount to hold Bar Mitzvah celebrations. With assistance from the
Michael Cherney Foundation and a large preliminary work and advertising,
the idea for this is spreading rapidly. One such celebration of
a bar-mitzvah took place for a Russia boy from the Zacharias family.
The ascend was attended by more than 20 people, including six
children of various ages, relatives from the US as well as the
crew from Israel TV Channel 9. Such ascends serve to stimulate
interest in the subject of Temple Mount for the wider secular
Russian-speaking Israelis.
A non-profit
organization "Pri," which also enjoys prolonged support
from the Michael Cherney Foundation, created a play "The
Wanderer," which premiered at Pesach. The play is a story
of a Jewish traveler who gets into different situations and learns
the lessons of life experiences, love and wisdom.
The performers
themselves invented and created decorations, costumes and took
part in developing the script. The performance involved both Jewish
children and adults. The audience reacted very vividly to the
play, which turned out to be a lively, creative and dynamic holiday!
After the play children were presented with gifts.
The Michael
Cherney Foundation strongly believes that cultural and educational
programs such as these have an enormous and positive impact on
Israel's growth and development.
The Michael
Cherney Foundation is a charitable foundation created by Michael
Cherney, a Russia born Israel entrepreneur. Cherney defines the
mission of the Foundation as to help democratic nations in their
war on terrorism and assist fellow émigrés to Israel
from Russia and other post-Soviet nations realize their intellectual
potential and become successfully integrated into the Israel society.
