About of Moshal scholarship program Founder

Martin Moshal was born in Durban, South Africa, in 1970. Even whilst at school Martin had already set his sights on business, pursuing a diverse range of ideas and interests. Most ended in failure but that did not discourage him.

Martin firmly believes that there is no secret formula for success, other than hard work, motivation, and a lot of patience. But there is also a large amount of luck. “I was lucky enough to have been given two things that, more than anything else, helped me on the road to success–a good education and the support and encouragement of my family to believe in myself.”

Growing up in South Africa in the 70s and 80s, Martin witnessed first-hand the inequalities of the country’s education system. Even today, children growing up in disadvantaged families are denied the opportunity of going to a good university simply because of their financial circumstances.

This led Martin to establish the Moshal Scholarship Program in 2009. “As a businessman, I believe that education provides some of the highest returns for your money.” While there are no financial strings attached to the scholarships, Martin strongly encourages a spirit of making a difference to others once students are in a position to do so.

“Pay it forward,” he tells all Moshal Scholars, “wherever and whenever you can help others. It doesn’t have to be in the money. It can be in time, advice, or effort. “

To date, the Moshal Scholarship Program currently provides scholarships to over 700 Moshal Scholars in Israel, South Africa, and Ukraine to enable determined young people from challenging backgrounds to attend the top universities in their home countries.

Moshal scholarship program has the role to support highly-motivated and tenacious students to access and complete their university education so that they will get good well-paid jobs and improve their financial situation, that of their families and hopefully that of their communities one day.

Scholarship recipients become beacons of hope to the other young people in their community, inspiring them to work harder and aim for the top.

However, Intrinsic to the ‘contract’ between the Moshal Program and its scholarship recipients is the understanding that in return for our funding of their university degree, they will do everything in their power to achieve the highest grades possible for them.

Scholars of this program are expected to take part in the Moshal community program, meet regularly with our psycho-social coordinators, attend training courses and join the annual events. Students are also encouraged to volunteer in the Program or their community from time to time.
