The Kol Yisrael Chaverim organization was founded by affluent French Jews in 1860, with the purpose of uniting and joining the hearts of all the world's Jews with bonds of love. One of the reasons for the establishment of the organization was the Edgardo Mortara case, about a Jewish child who was kidnapped by papal police. The organization was active on behalf of Jews from various communities, primarily in Eastern Europe and Islamic countries. The Alliance school in Jerusalem was founded in 1882 and it was the first modern school in Jerusalem. Its purpose was ""Torah and labor"" - integration of religious studies and providing professions such as tailoring, carpentry, shoemaking and more, in order to give the students the ability to support themselves without having to resort to distributions.
