Shavei Israel is a non-profit organization founded by Michael Freund, who immigrated to Israel from the United States, with the aim of strengthening the ties between the Jewish people, the State of Israel, and the descendants of Jews around the world.
The organization is currently active in more than a dozen countries and provides assistance to a variety of communities such as the Bnei Menashe of India; the Bnei Anousim (referred to by the derogatory term “Marranos” by historians) in Spain, Portugal, and South America; the Subbotnik Jews of Russia; the Jewish community of Kaifeng in China; descendants of Jews living in Poland, and others.
