StandWithUs is an international, non-partisan education
organization that supports Israel and fights antisemitism.
StandWithUs empowers and energizes students and
communities with leadership training and educational
programs on hundreds of college campuses, high
schools, and middle schools. StandWithUs informs
through social media, print and digital materials,
films, weekly newsletters, and missions to Israel.
Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Los Angeles, the
organization has programs on six continents with chapters and
offices throughout the U.S., in Israel, the UK, Canada, Brazil,
Argentina, the Netherlands, Australia and South Africa.
For over a decade, StandWithUs has consistently received
the highest possible ratings from Charity Navigator and
GuideStar and is ranked among the top 3% of charities
in the country. StandWithUs is registered as a 501 (c)
(3) nonprofit and Section 46 charity in Israel.
StandWithUs is not politically aligned in any country. The
organization does not and has never advocated specific policies
for Israel. Our work and respect for Israel’s democratically
elected government are not contingent on which parties are in
power. Our goal is to counter antisemitism, educate the public
about Israel, empower others to educate their communities, and
make it possible to have reasonable, informed conversations
about Israel’s history, policies, and humanitarian aid on
campuses and in communities around the world.
