December 2023 Tzedakah Box

Following the Hamas attack on Israeli communities near the Gaza border and the ensuing war, the New Israel Fund (NIF) mobilized resources and staff around the world to meet the immense needs of the moment. We are mourning with everyone in Israel and Gaza who has lost loved ones, and NIF ise continuing to work toward a better future for all. NIF is providing aid to Israelis, both Jewish and Arab, who have been affected; advocating for the immediate release of the more than 200 hostages being held captive by Hamas in Gaza; safeguarding human and civil rights in Israel and the occupied West Bank; and working to advance a shared, peaceful future for everyone in Israel.

The campaign focuses on four unique fronts: 

1. Humanitarian aid and basic needs 
2. Safeguarding human and civil rights
3. Bolstering Jewish-Arab relations
4. Providing an alternative vision for Israel's future
