New Israel Fund works in four areas:

• Fighting for civil and human rights
• Closing the social and economic gaps in Israeli society
• Promoting religious tolerance and pluralism
• Promoting Arab-Jewish co-existence

To promote these goals, New Israel Fund pursues an integrated strategy of grantmaking, technical assistance and coalition building. New Israel Fund builds institutions by nurturing and developing grassroots organisations that become the backbone of Israel's civil society and it partners with funders who share this vision of strategic philanthropy in support of democracy and social justice.
