Outbrain donates to Tmura

We are proud to announce that outbrain has joined Tmura (www.tmura.org) as a donor company. Tmura is an incredible initiative looking to share the upside of successful startups with charitable causes in Israel focused on youth and education.

More about the fund from the Tmura website:

Tmura – the Israeli Public Service Venture Fund is a nonprofit organization (“amuta”) which was founded in 2002 to increase the involvement of the high-tech community in non-profit activity in Israel, with a focus on education and other youth initiatives.

Tmura receives donations of equity from (mainly private) Israeli and Israel-related high-tech companies and, upon a liquidity event, allocates the proceeds to education- and youth-related charities in Israel.

“Tmura” is the Hebrew word for “change” or “metamorphosis” and also means “value for money”; it is also a play on the word “truma", which means “donation”.

We've donated roughly 1% of the company's founding shares to Tmura. Now we really have a good cause to make outbrain a huge success.... ;-)
