As JFN Israel’s philanthropic community continues to grow, we are seeing increased interest among funders in achieving value alignment between their philanthropy and investment portfolios. Many are looking for trusted knowledge, practical tools, and real-world learning in impact investing - to expand their giving toolbox and increase their social impact.

In response to this growing interest, JFN is hosting a pilot cohort of a member-initiated onboarding program bridging philanthropy and impact investing.

You are invited to join a focused onboarding program for philanthropists who want to align their investment portfolio with their overall mission, values, and areas of interest.

Through three in-person sessions, you will gain a clear understanding of the field and begin shaping your own practical impact investing roadmap, whether that means challenging your wealth manager or integrating your investments with your theory of change.

During the series, each participant will be offered a personal one-on-one meeting to discuss individual interests, questions, and next steps.

The series is intended for private funders
