Settler Charitable Organizations

2023-07-00 Regavim – Hqw Charitable Donations are Funding Indigenous Erasure Although organizations like Ateret Cohanim, Elad, Israel Land Fund, and Regavim were founded in Israel as part of the settler movement, they are fiscally sponsored by charities registered in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and elsewhere. Friends of Ateret Cohanim, Friends of Ir David, the One Israel Fund, the Central Fund of Israel and the Israel Independence Fund for example all leverage their 501 (c) 3 status in the United States to fund settler colonialism. This allows these organizations to receive tax–deductible donations from the United States and funnel them abroad. Given each organization’s documented history of intentionally targeting non–Jewish communities for displacement and annexation campaigns to develop illegal Israeli settlements, their actions are clearly outside the scope of charitable giving. The campaign’s primary goal is to create a legal precedent, to have clearly defined under the law that organizations supporting the oppression, displacement, and colonization of Palestinian lands are illegal under charitable laws in the United States, Canada, and other places http://defundracism.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/DefundRacism-Regavim.pdf
