Dear Friends and Partners,
2024 continued to be a difficult year for the Jewish people in Israel and the diaspora.
With the ongoing war in Israel on multiple fronts and the horrific rise in anti-Semitism around the world, now, more than ever, we have come to realize the importance and interdependency of the relationship between Israel and the Jewish communities of the diaspora.
With more than half of the Jewish people still residing outside of Israel, we believe that a Zionism, rooted in a strong Jewish identity, must evolve and step up to address these new challenges before us.
As we look towards the upcoming 39th World Zionist Congress in 2025, we at Kol Israel are committed to leading a redefined mission for the modern Zionist movement.
Kol Israel is the ONLY faction in the Zionist Congress which is independent of any political party or religious denomination. We are focused on broader issues in realizing a unique modernized mission for Zionism and engaging global Jewry to connect with Israel.
In these difficult days, we seek to bring unity and represent the vast majority of Jews who are unaffiliated and unbound by the traditional boxes of religiosity or politics.
Kol Israel has a vision to increase the Zionist Movement's investment in youth, education and technology. We want to shift the balance of power from Jerusalem to engage global Zionist federations and global Jewry to be active participants in the path ahead for Israel and its relationship with Jewish communities around the world.
Kol Israel's platform puts an emphasis on innovation as the lifeblood to a renewed Zionist movement and will lead a novel approach to combating anti-Semitism, in communities abroad and on campuses
We need your support so we can succeed and expand our influence in the 2025 Congress in order to realize our vision.
LET'S BRING ZIONISM HOME TOGETHER in 2025.
David Yaari, Chair, Kol Israel
