The Eyal and Marilyn Ofer Family Foundation Scholarship Fund

The Eyal and Marilyn Ofer Family Foundation Scholarship Fund was established in 2002 with a preference to support international students with demonstrated financial need who have a strong interest in the social, political, moral, and technological dimensions of international conflict and cooperation.
