Andres Spokoiny delineated forcefully the need for both communal (through the federation network) and individual philanthropy. It would be worthwhile to bear in mind another avenue somewhat in between, namely supporting American Friends of the Hebrew University, Weizmann Institute, Technion, Tel Aviv and Beersheva Universities and other institutions for research, education and development in Israel and the US. Each of these bodies builds its own network of supporters who deliberate on development priorities at the frontiers of knowledge and enhance the institution’s physical and intellectual expansion. The esprit de corps in these networks enables individual philanthropists to transcend personal programs in a combined effort.
