When the Hadassah-Achotenu Ethiopian-Israeli Scholarships in Health Program was first established, the vision was clear: to drive real and lasting change. Today, that vision has become a reality, as year after year, the program empowers its graduates to achieve success and create ripples of change in their communities.
Through rigorous studies in nursing or occupational therapy, Achotenu continues to open doors to unprecedented opportunities for young Ethiopian-Israelis.
Recently, the program celebrated a significant milestone: six exceptional students were honoured with Excellence Awards, recognising their outstanding dedication and hard work. These awards serve as a powerful testament to their perseverance and the program’s success and impact.
Reflecting on this achievement, Rav Yosef Zvi Rimon, founder of Hadassah Australia's Israeli partner, La’Ofek, shared:
“When we established Achotenu, we envisioned a program with the power to drive real change. It has been our privilege to stand alongside these remarkable women, offering steadfast support, heartfelt encouragement, and expert guidance at every turn. Their success is a powerful reminder of the profound impact Achotenu continues to make in shaping futures and transforming lives.”
The Hadassah-Achotenu program remains committed to fostering opportunities and building brighter futures for Ethiopian-Israelis, helping them not only achieve their dreams but also become catalysts for change within their communities.
Stay tuned for more exciting Achotenu updates coming soon.
