As chairman of Alumot Or and on behalf of the Rothman family, I would like to
extend my deepest thanks and appreciation to all of our partners in making the
Benjamin Rothman Kadoorie School a reality:
Dr. Benny Fisher, Director of the Education Ministry’s Rural Education Division, and
Orna Friedman, Special Education Supervisor, for their partnership, Mr. Moti Dotan,
head of the Lower Galilee regional council for his vision of social integration and
willingness to take on the project, Hillel Hilman, Kadoorie’s former Director and
the entire village staff, for their endless energy, enthusiasm and focus, Roy Bar Ilan,
Kadoorie Village current CEO, for his ongoing support of the school, Bosmat Maoz,
the school’s headmaster today and visionary during its creation, and Nisim Barda,
project manager, for his hard work and professionalism in putting it all together.
I would also like to thank Peter Cohen and Barry Goodman from the Rothman
Foundation for their generosity, and Alumot Or’s board of directors for their
support: Sonia Gomes de Mesquita, Aviezer Segal, Naomi Ahimeir, Eti Lahav, Zvi
Rav-Ner and Shimon Rupa.
