Adelson donates $25 million to Yad Vashem
American casino and hotel magnate Sheldon Adelson has been dishing out generous donations to Jewish causes over the past week.
On Tuesday, he doubled his overall contribution to Yad Vashem in the past decade by announcing a $25 million gift to the Holocaust museum in Jerusalem.
A week earlier, Adelson increased his annual contribution to Birthright-Taglit — the program that brings Jews aged 18 to 26 from the Diaspora on a free trip to Israel — twofold, to $10 million
