We are a team of educators, community activists and philanthropists determined in developing leadership skills and academic excellence among Israeli-Ethiopian youth and young adults.

We aim to produce self-confident, well rounded youth who have been instilled with values, who matriculate high school, and who continue on to significant military service, academic careers, and leadership positions in Israeli society. Leaders of the Future (LOF) was founded by Jonathan David in 2011 after discovering the beautiful and closely-knit Israeli-Ethiopian community who are mostly living below the poverty line and are struggling to survive economically and integrate. With a highly dedicated team, a well thought out and tested winning-formula and an investment of $1million per year, Jonathan David and his team have created a successful model which they are now in the process of replicating and expanding.  The Leaders of the Future (LOF)’s mission is to create a generation of successful Ethiopians who lead their community forward in social mobility.
