MASPIK [Enough!]: A Coalition to Combat Antisemitism
MASPIK [Enough!]: A Coalition to Combat Antisemitism
JNF Canada is providing funding for coalition organizations' innovative programs with a focus on Israel/Zionism and combating anti-Zionist activity (that is a cover for antisemitism), from the Wendy Eisen and Carole Zucker JNF Fund which was created with $1.4 million in 2019.
Powered by CIJA, the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, MASPIK provides participating Israeli and Canadian coalition members with resources from the dinner for innovative programs to combat the surge of anti-Zionism and antisemitism. There is an oversight committee with representation from across the country that decides on the suitability of funding for all applications received.
Through MASPIK, 28 programs have been funded between 2021-2023.
On behalf of JNF, we thank our donors, sponsors and honourees for their support of the 2019 JNF Negev Dinner and through that support the programs listed below. There is a great deal more work to be done to change the narrative on Israel and combatting Jew-hatred. With the rise in antisemitism this past year, we are proud to continue to support the important work being done to combat antisemitism/anti-Zionism across the country.
We look forward to funding more innovative, impactful programs that will help move the needle in countering antisemitism and anti-Zionism.
