Graduating Class of 2024

Meet the Ethiopian-Israeli nurses graduating in 2024 thanks to the generosity of Australian donors, who are fully funding their scholarships.

As a result of a ground-breaking agreement between the United Israel Appeal and Hadassah Australia, we are closing Israel’s nursing gap and providing a career path for disadvantaged Ethiopian-Israelis.

To find out how you can make an impact by supporting a nursing scholarship, contact our Development Directors or donate now.
