Humvee tycoon Ira Rennert has donated five new Torah scrolls to synagogues in Israel, bringing to 160 the number of holy scrolls he has contributed in the Jewish state. The cost of a Torah scroll is approximately $30,000, bringing his investment to approximately $5 million. He also has donated money for mikvot (ritual purifying baths). 

Israel and the United States are large customers for the Humvee, and Rennert also has invested millions of dollars in real estate in Israel, including residences in Jerusalem.
