ICRF Junior Partner
Through ICRF’S Junior Partners program, kids can create their own fundraising projects, specifically tailored to their own interests and hobbies. Through a customized program, or simply donating a portion of their Bar/Bat Mitzvah gifts can play a direct role in the funding of scientists at any of Israel’s and Montreal’s leading institutions. By starting to give tzedkah at an early age, children are setting an example for themselves and for others and beginning a lifelong tradition of giving.

LOCAL RESEARCH GRANTS
In support of the local medical research community, ICRF allocates funds raised towards in association with local hospitals including the Montreal Jewish General, the Montreal Children's Hospital, and St. Justine's. More specifically, the scientists ICRF funds at the McGill Translational Centre under the direction of Dr. Gerald Batist are conducting molecular and gene research focusing on the root cause of many types of cancers including leukemia, lung, breast & colon.
