Our Mission
To facilitate face-to-face connections between Israel and the rest of the world that counter misinformation, support the victims of antisemitism and inspire resilience.
Our Vision
We envision a world where thousands of communities across the globe have ample opportunity to learn about Israel and the Jewish world directly from the source, fostering genuine understanding between Jews and all peoples.
Our Story
As Jewish professionals with networks around the world, we decided that our duty was becoming the bridge between October 7th survivors and communities around the world. We could combat the lacking media coverage, misinformation and justification for the attack, empower Jews and allies facing antisemitism, and support survivors. We brought our first survivor to the US on October 20th. Since, we've brought 15 survivors to over 200 communities across the world, including 80 college campuses. We have grown in demand faster than we can keep up, both from communities eager to host and survivors eager to share. And now, we are officially incorporated as a non-profit and are empowered to begin building more initiatives. We create spaces for tens of thousands more to personally and profoundly connect to the realities in Israel and empower strong young voices in the face of antisemitism. We're excited to announce new initiatives soon!
