We asked some of our supporters – including our Ronni Kahn AO, Mark Baker and Melissa Castan – why the Declaration of Independence is still relevant today.
Together, we're upholding the values of that document through the projects we fund in Israel.
By making strategic investments in civil society, the NIF community shapes an Israeli society which is more just, tolerant and equal. Along with donors in Israel, the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland and Germany, we've invested more than $400 million of funding to unique and impactful projects.

Each year, thousands of people join our events and support our projects in Israel. Our unique community – built on support for Israel, and a shared vision of equality, democracy and pluralism – is growing all the time. Over the last few years we've hosted leading journalists, politicians, lawyers, activists and campaigners. There's sure to be an event happening near you soon.
