Success in the modern world is often measured in numbers and growth. But thankfully, more and more businesses realize that giving back is essential – be it through money or time. Philanthropy isn’t an overlooked part anymore. Instead, it’s becoming a core belief that defines modern companies. Today, we will discover how Soft2Bet, a global tech company known for its success in iGaming, is making a meaningful impact through the Soft2Bet Foundation and supporting Jewish education and community life.
About Soft2Bet Foundation
CEO and founder of Soft2Bet, Uri Poliavich, created the Soft2Bet Foundation to be his company’s charitable arm. The Foundation is driven by a mission to create a better world for everybody. Their approach emphasizes taking action when and where it’s needed most. Their bigger goal is to use technology for the greater good and to help those in need.

Creation Of The Yael Foundation
Soft2Bet’s CEO, Uri Poliavich: “True leadership is empowering good people to accomplish great deeds.” And just like that, Yael – the wife of Uri, inspired him to create the Yael Foundation in 2020, with the goal of strengthening Jewish education and community life worldwide. The Foundation invests in formal and informal Jewish educational programs to make Jewish institutions the preferred choice for parents. Since the start of the Foundation, it has helped over 13,500 children around the world, showing Poliavich and Soft2Bet’s strong commitment to making a real difference.
As Yael eloquently says, “Learning about Jewish identity alongside excellent academic standards in school is pivotal for shaping the Jewish future.” Through supporting primary, Sunday and after schools, plus kindergartens, the Foundation helps ensure Jewish values and identity thrive for future generations.

- Believing that staying flexible is necessary to meet the unique needs of every child, school and community.
- Supporting programs no matter the location, size, culture or background.

Culture Of Giving In The Soft2Bets Offices
Soft2Bet’s office culture is more than just innovation and business success – it’s deeply rooted in the belief that companies are responsible for making a positive change. This spirit of giving is encouraged on every level of the company, from leaders to employees.
