Forest of Life Foundation

Growing the values that grow us.

For generations, our family has carried forward the values of health, education, and resilience — values rooted in Jewish tradition and in the lives of those who came before us. Forest of Life Foundation was created to carry those values further: to plant something that outlasts us, and that keeps giving long after we are gone.

Mission

Forest of Life Foundation supports children, families, and communities facing hardship — in health, education, and opportunity — guided by the belief that every life, given the right support, can grow like a tree: rooted, resilient, and reaching upward.

We focus where we believe change compounds most: access to education, access to health, and the discipline and hope that sport can bring to a young life. We also stand firmly against antisemitism, racism, and exclusion in all their forms.

We are a Swiss-registered, non-profit foundation, founded in 2024 by the Politanski and Kupfer Roizman families.
