Stichting (Foundation) David Henriques de Castrofonds

"I care about Beth Haim" is a rescue campaign by the Castrofonds, known in full as the David Henriques de Castrofonds. It was named after the man who ensured, a hundred years ago, at his own expense, that attention was focused on a hundred of the most important tombs, and that they were preserved for posterity.

Because "all those who have awoken from His people of Israel may be included in the circle of kindness and forgiveness, and thus be the will of the highest. Amen."

The Castrofonds was established "with the aim of preserving the memory of the famous men of the Portuguese Jewish community in Amsterdam for posterity."
