IRS990/Desc0Community 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.

IRS990/MissionDesc0Established in 1979 as a volunteer charity with the motto what you give is what you get, CFI was designed by its founders, Arthur and Hadassah Marcus, to enable one hundred percent of donations to reach charities in Israel. Over the years, CFI has received the Jerusalem Prize for volunteerism, accolades from the Chief Rabbinate, an award from PM Menachem Begin and accolades from hundreds of charities in Israel. We do not solicit or advertise. By word of mouth alone we have grown into a significant charitable force in Israel. Aiding over 400 charities and institutions each year we help the nation of Israel to thrive.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Social services, humanitarian aid, aid to the poor:Helping those in need is at the core of the organization. Charity means helping those in need whether it be in education, building structures, security or medicine. Our humanitarian aid is targeted to those people in need, whether it be monetary, physical or emotional. This category includes aid to food kitchens, children at risk, aid to terror victims and their families, aid to refugees and new immigrants, special education, after school programs, womens health programs etc.Due to the war which insued after Israel was attacked on Oct 7th, 2023, the need for these social services increased by many millions of dollars as the needs were so great for refugees. The traumas from PTSD in Israel today is a major issue and we have multiple organizations dealing with this from many different angles.
