The Holy Woman Foundation was founded to raise funds for needy Jewish children in Jerusalem. Currently, our foundation provides hot lunches and enrichment programming for little girls, aged 6-14, enrolled in Ohr Batya in the Vucharian section of Jerusalem. All of our girls come from dysfunctional and impoverished homes. The school is for "throw-away" girls who would not be accepted elsewhere because of their unstable family backgrounds (mother mentally ill, father in jail, father has abandoned family, etc.). The school day ends at 1 pm, and then the girls go home to. . . . . nothing. Rebbetzin Esther Ben Chaim (see chapter 13 of the bestseller, Holy Woman), the principal of the school, has been able to start an afternoon program since receiving funds from the Holy Woman Foundation. This program gives the girls a hot lunch (their only protein meal of the day‚ and for many their only meal of the day), plus art, music, computer science, field trips, big sisters, tutoring and psychotherapy when needed. None of these things are provided by the government curriculum. Rebbetzin Chaya Sara Kramer, the Holy Woman, blessed this school. The Holy Woman Foundation, created in her memory, seeks to perpetuate the devoted caring for needy Jewish children to which she dedicated her life.

Enhancing the lives of women and families in remote coffee producing communities throughout the world. #grantingHOPEworldwide The Cafe Femenino Foundation (CFF) offers hope, opportunity, aid, and encouragement to disenfranchised women in the poorest and least accessible areas of coffee-growing countries. These women perform much of the physical labor required to grow and harvest coffee, yet they have almost no influence on decisions about their family’s income. They are typically uneducated, impoverished and disconnected from resources. We enhance the status of the women by empowering them with skills and income producing opportunities by providing small grants and micro-loans to help the women and their families diversify their income sources. The grants improve the nutrition, health and education of their families and communities. The foundation also provides emergency aid when there is typically none. Since 2004, the Cafe Femenino Foundation has funded grants received directly from the women coffee producers in 10 different countries.
