The Weizmann Institute based in Rehovot, Israel, is a center of scientific research and graduate study, addressing crucial issues in medicine and health, technology, energy, agriculture and the environment. Its 2,500 scientists, students, technicians and engineers pursue basic research in the quest for knowledge and the enhancement of the human condition.

According to Mr. Karr, “When one chooses an organization to support with time and energy, choosing the Weizmann Institute was a clear cut and easy decision. The work done by this prestigious institution pays back tremendous dividends for the support it receives, dividends that positively affect the world population.”
