Mrs. Franciska (Nini) Czopp, a social worker by profession, was born in 1919 in Holland. During the Shoah she was deported to the camps. Having survived Auschwitz and Bergen Belsen she returned to Holland. Socially strongly engaged and aware of the grave situation of the returning survivors, she devoted her life to helping them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs. Czopp was a co-founder of the Dutch Jewish Social Service (Joods Maatschappelijk Werk) and was in charge of the Jewish recuperation home \u201cDen Dolder\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

After immigrating to Israel, she was appointed director of the Dutch old age home \u201cBeth Joles\u201d in Haifa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within the framework of the Dutch Immigration Society (Irgun Olei Holland) she initiated the home care project for Dutch Holocaust survivors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs. Czopp passed away in 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two years later, our organization was founded to perpetuate her mission: the care of Holocaust survivors. As a token of appreciation for her commitment, the organization was named after her, the Nini Czopp Association.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our partners<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its foundation, Nini Czopp has provided its services free of charge. This was made possible thanks to the restitution monies provided by the Dutch government. These endowments almost completely financed the activities of our organization for many years.

However, since 2020 these funds gradually diminished and are now totally depleted. As a result, we are today fully dependent on government subsidies, grants from Israeli and foreign charities, as well as on donations from private individuals.

We are grateful to our donors for supporting either specific projects or for supporting core activities and their names are mentioned below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
