Beersheva – Winnipeg Community Action Center (est. 2002)

“The Asper Foundation is proud to play an instrumental role in the creation of the Winnipeg Community Action Centre. This centre marks the deep respect and support of the people of Winnipeg for the social services being rendered to youth in developing communities in Israel. The need for the services of this centre is essential, now more than any other time in recent memory.”

“Our shared goals and values can only result in mutual benefits to each city.”

“As a sister city to Winnipeg, Beer Sheva is the ideal location for the creation of the Winnipeg Community Action Centre. It further solidifies Winnipeg’s commitment to vulnerable teenagers and to fostering cooperation in a safe, nurturing place. The Winnipeg Community Action Centre should be a source of pride for all Winnipeggers.”

“This centre is part of our ongoing effort to close the social gap in Israel. Equality of opportunity is an important value in itself and is essential for maintaining the strength of Israeli society. We hope to establish centres of this kind throughout the country.”
