Lifeline for Israel’s Needy

Offer critical support to Israel’s most vulnerable populations: Holocaust survivors, widows, orphans and needy families. Through practical help like home repairs, dental treatment and food, your partnership ensures that no one is forgotten and that dignity and hope are restored to Israel’s most at-risk citizens.

Crisis Response

Provide urgent assistance in emergencies: terrorism, war, natural and manmade disasters. This fund supports bomb shelters, ambulances, trauma care and immediate financial help for victims. When missiles fall or terrorists strike, we are there, responding with the tangible love of God.

Feed a Child

Build Israel’s future by equipping children from struggling families with what they need to thrive. These children need more than a hot meal. They need to know they are loved and remembered. Your support provides nutritious meals, school supplies, backpacks and encouragement that lifts their spirits and strengthens their future.

Project Rescue

This is a prophetic moment, and you are part of it! This fund fulfills the biblical mandate for the nations to help the Jewish people return to their homeland (Isa. 49:22; Zech. 8:7–8). We bring persecuted Jewish families safely home to Israel and support needy Jewish individuals unable to make the journey. Your giving helps unfold prophecy before our eyes.

Bless an Immigrant

Empower new immigrants to thrive as they begin life in Israel. Your support provides essential resources to help them start strong, integrate successfully and build a bright future in the Promised Land. Together, we help them flourish in the land of hope and promise.

Greatest Ministry Need

Power Bridges for Peace to impact the nations. Your support keeps the mission alive, equips believers, spreads truth and ensures we can stand with Israel wherever the need is greatest. This fund gives us the agility to respond immediately to urgent needs, whether purchasing an ambulance, assisting trauma victims or meeting an unexpected crisis.

Greatest Israel Need

Tackle urgent needs and build strategic partnerships in Israel. Your support helps us tackle unique challenges with creative solutions and swiftly fill gaps that traditional programs can’t reach, making a real, lasting impact where it’s needed most. 

The Bottom Line for You

Nothing familiar is disappearing. As we transition throughout 2026, you will still see many of the familiar names you have known in the past. You can also continue giving exactly as before, and every designation will always be honored. These programs will simply be organized under the seven impact funds, but you will recognize them as the ministries you have faithfully loved and supported.

Moving Forward Together

As I write this, Israel faces ongoing threats from multiple fronts. Hamas remains in Gaza. Hezbollah still lurks in Lebanon. Iran continues its pursuit of nuclear weapons. And Jewish communities around the world are experiencing unprecedented levels of antisemitism. The needs are vast and the challenges are great. 

But here's what I know: the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is on the throne. Israel will be victorious because the God of Israel defends His covenantal nation. And He has called us—Christians from every nation—to stand with His people in their hour of need. Your partnership with Bridges for Peace has never been more critical. Every gift you send demonstrates the love of God to a traumatized nation. It says, "You are not alone!"

Thank you for standing with Israel through Bridges for Peace. Your generosity transforms lives every day. Together, we are making history. Together, we are fulfilling prophecy. Together, we are bringing hope, strength and joy to the people of Israel as we all see the faithfulness of God. Will you choose the fund that speaks to your heart and give generously today? 

With deep gratitude and shalom,
