My relationship to Ronen Foundation

My relationship with the Ronen Foundation, and in fact with Yaffa Israeli, who is the heart of

this wonderful foundation, began this summer.

Yaffa explained to me several times in our meetings that the Ronen Foundation is not just a

foundation, it is a family, and now we are part of it.

From the very first moment I entered the foundation, I felt the amazing support of Yaffa, who

makes sure to take an interest in and support the professional and personal progress of me

and of all the foundation's scholarships.

It's such a great privilege to be part of a family of artists who are so special and talented,and

support each other professionally and personally.
