Mission and programs · 2022

• COMMUNITY SUPPORT, EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS AND ACTIVITIES IN THE U.S.===================================================================THE PROFESSIONALS AT STANDWITHUS RECOGNIZE THAT THE SAME ANTISEMITIC PROPAGANDA THAT IS BEING PROMOTED ON CAMPUSES IS ALSO USED IN HIGH SCHOOLS AND IN COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD TO ACHIEVE THE SAME DESTRUCTIVE GOALS. THE MAIN GOAL IS TO CREATE ANIMOSITY TOWARDS ISRAEL AND ITS SUPPORTERS. THE BOYCOTT MOVEMENT AGAINST ISRAEL CONTINUES TO MENACE WELL-MEANING COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD. CHURCHES AND UNIONS HAVE BECOME COMMON TARGETS AND PLATFORMS FOR CREATING ILL WILL AGAINST ISRAEL AND ITS SUPPORTERS, PARTICULARLY JEWS BECAUSE ISRAEL IS A BIG PART OF JEWISH IDENTITY. (SEE SCH O FOR CONTINUATION) COMMUNITY SUPPORT, EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS AND ACTIVITIES IN THE U.S. (CONTINUED)THE SAME STRATEGIES AND TOOLS THAT STANDWITHUS IS USING ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES ARE ALSO BEING USED WITHIN COMMUNITIES. FOR 21 YEARS, STANDWITHUS HAS BEEN ENGAGED IN EDUCATING AND INSPIRING PEOPLE OF ALL AGES ABOUT ISRAEL AND ABOUT FIGHTING ANTISEMITISM. STANDWITHUS IS THERE TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, FROM FUNDING EVENTS TO PRODUCING PUBLICATIONS AND FILMS ON A VARIETY OF ISSUES, TO RESPOND TO ANTI-ISRAEL, ANTISEMITIC CAMPAIGNS. WE BRING RELEVANT PROGRAMS AND GUEST SPEAKERS, WE HOST EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCES, FILM DISCUSSIONS, AND MORE. STANDWITHUS HAS BECOME THE LARGEST PRODUCER AND DISTRIBUTOR OF WELL-DOCUMENTED, COLORFUL, USER-FRIENDLY AND ENGAGING PUBLICATIONS FOR CAMPUSES, HIGH SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, SYNAGOGUES AND COMMUNITIES ABOUT ISRAEL AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE. FILMS THAT STANDWITHUS PRODUCES ARE USED ON SOCIAL MEDIA. MILLIONS OF COPIES OF OUR MATERIALS HAVE BEEN DISTRIBUTED EACH YEAR IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES, AND ARE AVAILABLE IN HARD COPY, ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS ON MOBILE DEVICES. STANDWITHUS HAS BECOME A SIGNIFICANT LEADER ON CAMPUS, REACHING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE EACH WEEK.

• ISRAEL OFFICE=========MISINFORMATION ABOUT ISRAEL AND JEWS HAVE BEEN PROMOTED TO YOUNG ADULTS IN COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD. STANDWITHUS OPENED AN OFFICE IN ISRAEL IN 2005 WHEN WE REALIZED THAT WE CAN EDUCATE VISITORS THAT COME TO ISRAEL. OUR WORK HAS GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY IN ISRAEL. WE RECENTLY DOUBLED OUR OFFICE SPACE SO THAT WE CAN REACH TENS OF THOUSANDS MORE STUDENTS FROM THE JERUSALEM LOCATION. STUDENTS COME TO US FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD FOR SESSIONS AND SPECIAL EXPERIENCES, INCLUDING TOURS. (SEE SCH O FOR CONTINUATION) ISRAEL OFFICE (CONTINUED)OUR WORK IN ISRAEL INCLUDES PARTNERING WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO EDUCATE THEIR CONSTITUENTS, TO WORKING WITH ISRAELI COLLEGE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO HELP THEM BECOME BETTER REPRESENTATIVES OF THEIR OWN COUNTRY, ISRAEL. HAVING A LARGE, FULLY FUNCTIONING OFFICE IN ISRAEL ENABLES US TO BE A RESOURCE FOR MATERIALS, SPEAKERS, PROGRAMS, CONFERENCES, MISSIONS TO ISRAEL, SOCIAL MEDIA, INCLUDING REAL-TIME UPDATES DURING WARTIME, AND SO MUCH MORE. WE ANTICIPATE THAT THE ISRAEL OFFICE AND ITS MANY EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS WILL CONTINUE TO GROW EACH YEAR DUE TO THE HIGH DEMAND FOR OUR RESOURCES AND DESIRE TO PARTNER WITH OTHER GROUPS. THE STANDWITHUS SOCIAL MEDIA DEPARTMENT, WHICH EDUCATES MILLIONS OF PEOPLE EACH WEEK, IS MANAGED BY OUR TEAM IN ISRAEL. WITH MILLIONS OF FANS ON ALL OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, OUR REACH IS TRACKABLE AND OUR ANALYTICS ARE IMPRESSIVE. WE ALSO OFFER FACEBOOK PAGES IN OTHER LANGUAGES, INCLUDING ARABIC, WHICH IS DYNAMIC AND INFORMATIVE TO THE ARAB WORLD, REACHING ONE MILLION PEOPLE EACH WEEK.

• CAMPUS SUPPORT AND COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES IN THE U.S.===================================================STANDWITHUS HAS BECOME A HOUSEHOLD WORD ACROSS THE UNITED STATES FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO EDUCATE THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES ABOUT ISRAEL AND FIGHT ANTISEMITISM, WHETHER IT IS ON CAMPUS OR IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. ALL OF OUR OFFICES HAVE THE SAME APPROACH. WE OFFER TRAINING, MATERIALS, FUNDING, AND SPEAKERS FOR CAMPUSES, HIGH SCHOOLS, MIDDLE SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, SYNAGOGUES AND COMMUNITY EVENTS. WE REGULARLY HOST LARGE AND SMALL CONFERENCES AND OTHER FORMS OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS. (SEE SCH O FOR CONTINUATION) CAMPUS SUPPORT AND COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES IN THE U.S. (CONTINUED)STANDWITHUS HAS BEEN WORKING ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES SINCE ITS INCEPTION, DUE TO STUDENTS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY REACHING OUT TO OUR PROFESSIONALS FOR HELP TO CHALLENGE ANTISEMITIC MISINFORMATION BEING PROMOTED ON CAMPUSES BY ANTISEMITIC STUDENT GROUPS. ISRAEL AND ITS SUPPORTERS ARE REGULARLY BEING MARGINALIZED AND EVEN "CANCELED" ON CAMPUS AS THEY WERE ON BERKELEY FOR EXAMPLE WHEN 9 STUDENT GROUPS IN THE LAW SCHOOL VOTED ON A BYLAW THAT WOULD NOT ALLOW "ZIONIST" SPEAKERS TO PRESENT TO THESE GROUPS. A ZIONIST SIMPLY BELIEVES THAT ISRAEL HAS A RIGHT TO EXIST IN PEACE AND SECURITY, AND MOST JEWS CONSIDER ISRAEL A PART OF THEIR JEWISH IDENTITY. THAT IS WHY A BYLAW AGAINST ZIONISTS IS CONSIDERED ANTISEMITIC, AND JEWISH STUDENTS (AS WELL AS NON-JEWISH ZIONISTS) FEEL THREATENED AND MARGINALIZED ON FAR TOO MANY CAMPUSES WHERE ISRAEL AND JEWS ARE BEING MISREPRESENTED. STUDENTS HAVE REPORTED HATE SPEECH AND ANTISEMITIC CAMPAIGNS BEING HOSTED ON THEIR CAMPUSES THROUGH SPEAKERS, PROFESSORS AND STUDENT GROUPS WHO CREATE ILL WILL ON CAMPUS FOR ISRAEL AND ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS IT. STUDENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO WANT TO EDUCATE THEIR PEERS NEED THE TOOLS AND SUPPORT TO DO SO. STANDWITHUS PROVIDES GUIDANCE AND WILL CREATE MATERIALS AS NEEDED, TO MAKE SURE WE CHALLENGE LIES AND MISINFORMATION. STANDWITHUS WILL NOT SAY "NO" TO STUDENTS WHO ASK FOR HELP, AS LONG AS THE NEED IS RELATED TO THE STANDWITHUS MISSION OF EDUCATION ABOUT ISRAEL AND FIGHTING ANTISEMITISM. STANDWITH US HAS BECOME AN IMPORTANT RESOURCE FOR ANY STUDENT WHO WANTS TO CORRECT MISINFORMATION ABOUT ISRAEL AND JEWS. OUR ANNUAL EMERSON FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM ENABLES STUDENTS TO TAKE LEADERSHIP ROLES ON CAMPUSES ACROSS THE US AND CANADA, AND MOST RECENTLY IN THE UK, THE NETHERLANDS AND BRAZIL. WE NOW HAVE OVER NEARLY 175 EMERSON FELLOWS ON CAMPUS EACH YEAR, WHOM WE SUPPORT WITH EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, GUIDANCE & TRAINING, MATERIALS, FUNDING, AND INITIATIVES FOR THEIR CAMPUSES. THROUGH OUR EMERSON FELLOWS AND OTHER STANDWITHUS STUDENT LEADERS IN THE 2021-2022 ACADEMIC YEAR, WE HAD OVER 150,000 STUDENTS AT 800+ EDUCATIONAL EVENTS ON OVER 200 COLLEGE CAMPUSES. WE WORKED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER EXCELLENT ORGANIZATIONS TO FIGHT THE BOYCOTT MOVEMENT AND ANTISEMITISM AGAINST ISRAEL, JEWS AND ITS MULTI-FAITH SUPPORTERS.IN ADDITION TO OUR CAMPUS WORK, WE HAVE A SEPARATE DEPARTMENT DEDICATED TO CULTIVATING LEADERSHIP IN HIGH SCHOOLS. THIS GROWING PROGRAM ENGAGES NEARLY 150,000 STUDENTS THROUGH OUR PROGRAMS EACH YEAR. WE ALSO HAVE A GROWING MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAM OFFERING CURRICULUM THAT IS ALREADY IN OVER 250 MIDDLE SCHOOLS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.

• HIGH SCHOOL===========WE BEGAN OUR WORK IN HIGH SCHOOL IN ORDER TO BE STRATEGIC AND PREPARE TEENS FOR THE CHALLENGES THEY ARE LIKELY TO FACE ON THEIR FUTURE COLLEGE CAMPUSES.

SELECTION IS BASED ON A STUDENT'S LEADERSHIP SKILLS, TRACK RECORD, AND PROFESSIONAL REFERENCES FROM TEACHERS, PRINCIPALS, YOUTH GROUP AND COMMUNITY LEADERS, AND ON THE STUDENT'S CLEAR INTEREST IN AND DEDICATION TO ISRAEL. THE INTERNS ARE SUPPORTED WITH SPEAKERS, GUIDANCE, PROGRAMS AND FUNDING. IN 2022 THE INTERNS HAVE HOSTED PROGRAMS THAT WERE ATTENDED BY OVER 150,000 STUDENTS AT THEIR HIGH SCHOOLS, COMMUNITIES AND YOUTH GROUPS. AFTER THEY GRADUATE OUR HIGH SCHOOL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM, THEY ARE INTRODUCED TO OUR CAMPUS PROFESSIONALS WHERE THEY CONTINUE TO HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO REMAIN ENGAGED WITH STANDWITHUS AS LEADERS ON CAMPUS FOR ISRAEL EDUCATION.

The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
