The ceremony was hosted by Mrs. Hannah Melamed, the Chairperson of the Scholarship Fund, and its guest of honor was the Minister of Social Affairs and Services, Isaac Herzog, Sarah Herzog's grandson.
Two additional scholarships for excelling students were donated personally by the Herzog family and were granted to Danielle Cohen from the Sarah Herzog Children’s Center in Afula and Mazal Karmiel from Neve Sarah Herzog in Bnei Barak.
Shani Melamed, a student at the Emunah's College, thanked the fund, its chairperson and the Herzog family for their care and aid on behalf of the students.
