Parables of Hope
Each year, thanks to the generosity of our contributors, Tree of Life Educational Fund is able to offer direct support for those organizations that have exemplified themselves as “parables of hope.” These are organizations both in Israel and the occupied territories that are working to provide a better future for those who live in the Holy Land. Many of these organizations have a website, and we encourage you to follow the links below to learn more about the excellent work these “parables of hope” do in their work for justice and for peace.
