PROMOTING CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES IN ISRAEL

COMMUNITY PROJECTS:THE ORGANIZATION UNDERTAKES COMMUNITY PROJECTS WHICH BENEFIT THE WELFARE OF THE CITIZENS AND THE LAND OF ISRAEL. DURING THIS PAST YEAR WE WITNESSED ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN ANTI-SEMITISM IN ALL ITS FORMS. THE THREATS TO THE NATION OF ISRAEL, THE LAND OF ISRAEL, THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL AND THE SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL ALL AROUND THE WORLD CONTINUES TO RISE DAILY. ALL MEDIA, BUT PARTICULARLY SOCIAL MEDIA CONTINUES TO SEE AN EXPLOSION OF CLASSICAL ANTI-SEMITISM AND MANY NEW MODERN FORMS OF HATRED. VOICES OF DEMONSTRATIONS, BOYCOTTS, DIVESTMENT, AND EVEN TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF THE STATE AND ITS PEOPLE ARE HEARD IN CLASSROOMS, UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES, NEWSPAPERS, PARLIMENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD AND I'M SORRY TO SAY EVEN IN THE HALLS OF CONGRESS OF OUR MAJESTIC COUNTRY. THE ENEMIES OF THE JEWISH NATION CONSTANTLY SEARCH FOR NEW WAYS TO HARM US. THERE ARE MANY WHO HAVE NOT GIVEN UP ON THEIR DREAM TO DESTROY US PHYSICALLY. THE VENOM HEARD THROUGHOUT IS REMINISCENT OF THE 1930'S AND ITS DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES TO HUMANITY. CFI CONTINUES SUPPORTING THOSE CHARITIES WHICH ARE COMBATING ANTI-SEMITISM, THE BDS MOVEMENT AND THREATS OF ANNIHILATION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE.OUR COMMUNITY PROJECTS ARE MEANT TO INCREASE PUBLIC AWARENESS TO THE REALITIES OF ANTI-SEMITISM AND COMBAT IT WHEREVER IT IS FOUND; WHETHER THROUGH USE OF THE LEGAL SYSTEM OR SOCIAL MEDIA. WE NEED TO EDUCATE THE WORLD OF THE EVIL AFFECTS OF ANTI-SEMITISM. NOT EVEN 100 YEARS REMOVED FROM THE HOLOCAUST, WE SEE HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF. OUR GRANTS ALSO GO TO ASSIST IN THE CONSTRUCION AND MAINTENANCE OF COMMUNITY FACILITIES THROUGHOUT ISRAEL.
