I'm translating a website for an NPO and need the exact translation of the terms above. The corresponding Israeli government's website is shamefully lacking in parallel English content, so that was not much help. I can translate it literally but the exact terminology (if exists) will be best. Hoping one of you will be able to help me out!

(Israel) Corporate Authority - Endowment Register
Explanation:
Here's what I found:

(Israel) Corporate Authority -> http://tinyurl.com/2jcrnx

"Upon examination of the publicly available **Israel Corporate Authority** records of the Weissglass business, Bedein reports, there is no record of any Weissglass activity to divest neither from this second law firm nor from his business. "

and

Endowment Register -> http://tinyurl.com/2n4rut

"Public Endowments. Although the term “foundation” is more widely used, the term “endowment” is more compatible with the Hebrew word used in the law - Hekdesh. According to the Trust Law (1979), endowments need not be incorporated when the endowment is only a fiscal entity (i.e., a bank account). Rather, as soon as a specific person is appointed trustee, he or she must register within three months with the Endowment Register in the Ministry of Justice. Providing specific details about the endowment and the trustee to the Registrar completes the registration process."


Unfortunatelly, nothing official...

I hope it helps.
