The South African Jewish Maritime League is a Jewish organisation located in South Africa. Established in 1938,〔http://jml.org.za/jml-history/〕 it is constitutionally constrained to maritime related activities, with a focus on youth development. The original objective of the founders was to establish much needed maritime activity in Israel where the pioneers were considered to be almost devoid of maritime experience. The JML has evolved over 73 years into an organisation that not only acts in the interest of the Jewish community but mirrors the Jewish community's compassion for the wellbeing of our youth of all races and creeds. Among the numerous projects of JML have been: * Establishing a Nautical College in Akko (1965) which continues to be one of Israel's thriving educational establishments. * Acquiring and sailing a former South African based whaling ship renamed the "Drom Afrika" from South Africa to Israel (1948) . This was said to be the first vessel to initiate the newly established State of Israel's fleet. * Bringing out combined groups of Arab and Jewish Children from Israel to South Africa in our "Sailing Together" projects. * Providing Maritime related study bursaries. * Donation of yachts placed at various yacht clubs throughout the Western Cape, South Africa, to enable local youths of all races to have access to sailing. * Providing maritime instruction and sail training to deserving applicants. * Assisting local youth training institutions. * Participating in larger joint projects with likeminded organisations.e.g., Izivunguvungu, SASLA, Cape Windjammers Education Trust, etc. * Assisting those young South Africans who are from a previously disadvantaged background to enable them to access sailing and other maritime activities. ==External links== *(South African Jewish Maritime League ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「South African Jewish Maritime League」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
