Pave the Way Foundation Receives Substantial Donation

Pave the Way Foundation (PTWF), a non-sectarian organization founded to remove obstacles between religions, and to end the misuse of religion for private agendas, receives a $200,000 donation from the Fritz and Adelaide Kauffmann Foundation (FAKF).

 

“Pave the Way Foundation is continuously succeeding in their mission to improve relations between religions though remarkable and historic gestures,” stated Mr. Theodore Mirvis, trustee of FAKF. “Their work impacts millions of people. We truly believe that PTWF has the right idea and that they are on the right track. Their internationally recognized effectiveness has earned our support.” 

 

Preferring effective action to dialogue, Pave the Way Foundation initiates historic gestures of good will and identifies and eliminates obstacles between the faiths. Through our unprecedented successes we gain respect and credibility, which  enables us to move toward our mission to end the illegal use of religion for private agendas. 

 

“During these difficult economic times, we are aware that the Kauffmann Foundation must be diligent with their charitable gift program, insuring that donations are provided to organizations whose work benefits the largest numbers of individuals,” stated Gary Krupp, President of Pave the Way Foundation. “This gift has helped us to continue our work to remove the illegal use of religion to justify violence and to initiate historic gestures between the faiths. We are grateful to the Kauffmann foundation for their confidence in us and for their very generous gift.”

 

About Pave the Way Foundation

 

Pave the Way has a simple yet monumental goal –to enhance the relations between the world’s religions through gestures of good will and thereby embracing their similarities and savoring their differences. In today's world, some individuals try to achieve their agenda through violence, in the name of religion. To silently allow this to happen defames every faith. Our vision is that the unified voice of the world's great religious leaders condemning violence and promoting trust will pave the way to peace.
