Little known fact: Henry Morgenthau Jr., U.S. Treasury Secretary during World War II, was instrumental in developing the framework for Israel Bonds.<\/p>\n
In its early years, the new nation faced many overwhelming challenges and lacked the financial resources to absorb hundreds of thousands of immigrants and build basic infrastructure. Morgenthau introduced a bold idea to Israel\u2019s first Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion\u2014engage Diaspora Jews as active partners in funding essential growth, defense, and immigration needs. This model was based on Morgenthau\u2019s experience with U.S. war bonds during WWII and offered a tangible way to invest directly in the nation\u2019s economic development and survival.<\/p>\n
