Over half a million Israeli-Americans live in the United States today. As a vital component of American society, they play a major role in social activism, academia, culture and innovation. The Israeli-American Council (IAC) is the largest Israeli-American organization in the Unites States, serving this vibrant sector of American society. IAC’s effectiveness and success is the direct result of its ability to organize, activate, and engage the Israeli-American community nationwide. The IAC strives to achieve these goals through programs and events for all ages, as well as by empowering and sponsoring a wide array of non-profit organizations within the Israeli-American community. OUR GOALS Encourage a culture of giving, activism, and connection to Israel through personal examples of community involvement. Connect the next generation to the community, their Jewish identity, the Hebrew language, and the State of Israel. Foster active support of initiatives that further Israel’s welfare, security, education and its relations with the United States. Translate the Israeli-American community’s needs, desires, and values into action and a strong and influential voice. Serve as a professional and financial resource for initiatives that support the development of an active and unified Israeli-American community with strong connections to the State of Israel, now and in the future. Strengthen the relationships between the Israeli-American community and the Israeli community in Israel. Build bridges between the Israeli-American and Jewish American communities in the United States.
