From the moment hostilities broke out, we have been in contact with our office in Jerusalem, getting up-to-the-minute information and developing response strategies. This Federation has a long history of a unique engagement with committed lay leaders and partners in Israel in building a stronger, more democratic, and pluralistic society for all of Israel's citizens. We’ve mobilized immediate assistance to the conflict zone to reinforce our programs, not only to provide immediate assistance but to strengthen the communities in addressing long-term needs.

We’ve heard directly from our partners in Israel how important this work is. We’ve heard how our programs have become the center of family life in some communities. We’ve heard how the war created added tensions in our programs that bring Israeli Arabs and Jews together, and most of all, we heard that our support is meaningful, timely, and impactful.

“Of all our donors, San Francisco was the only one who asked us what we need.”

- Vivian Silver, Executive Director, Negev Institute for Strategies of Peace and Development
