Megemeria School
In 2010, Orna and Isaac Levy established the Megemeria School of Jewelry & Art, as a beacon of hope and opportunity for the Ethiopian community. This life-changing initiative provides Ethiopian immigrants with professional training and employment opportunities in jewelry making and essential life skills. Deeply rooted in the Levys' commitment to social responsibility, Megemeria has become more than a school; it's a thriving community where students gain financial independence and proudly integrate into society. Named 'Genesis in Amharic, it symbolizes a fresh start, celebrating each new beginning and step towards a brighter, more inclusive future.
