Welcome to The Abravanel, Duarte and Verdugo international Sephardic Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the Sephardic community. Our foundation is named in honor of three prominent Sephardic families who have contributed significantly to the preservation and promotion of Sephardic culture worldwide.
Our mission is to create a platform for the education, preservation, and promotion of Sephardic culture and heritage, including language, art, music, literature, and history. We strive to ensure that the Sephardic legacy is not lost and that future generations have access to the rich cultural heritage of their ancestors.
Education is at the core of our foundation, and we offer a range of educational programs and resources to promote Sephardic culture and heritage. We provide access to a wide range of books, journals, and research materials related to Sephardic history and culture. Our website also serves as a platform for sharing knowledge and resources related to Sephardic culture and heritage.
One of our primary goals is to promote the study of Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish language spoken by Sephardic Jews. Ladino is an essential part of Sephardic culture, and it provides a valuable insight into the history and traditions of Sephardic Jews. We offer courses in Ladino language and literature, and we also support research into the history and linguistics of Ladino.
We also organize cultural events and festivals to celebrate Sephardic culture and heritage. Our events include music concerts, art exhibitions, and food festivals, which provide an opportunity for people to experience the rich cultural traditions of the Sephardic community.
Our foundation is committed to promoting Sephardic culture and heritage worldwide. We work with other organizations and institutions to raise awareness of the importance of Sephardic culture and heritage and to promote its preservation and study.
In conclusion, The Abravanel, Duarte and Verdugo international Sephardic Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the Sephardic community. Our foundation is committed to providing educational resources, promoting the study of Ladino, organizing cultural events, and raising awareness of the importance of Sephardic culture and heritage.
