Please Support our Work!

Since 2005, we've been uniting Jewish and Arab women in Israel, and empowering women in both Israel and the West Bank to serve as agents of peace in their communities. To see videos of our work, go to Circlework in Israel/Videos.

All our funding comes from people like you, who understand that the world will not change unless our consciousness changes and that circles are a powerful tool for initiating the transformation that is urgently needed on our planet now.

Like many non-profit organizations, we've been hard hit by the economic crisis. At the same time, we know that this is exactly the kind of work that is most needed today, if we hope to lay the foundation for a better future. Please consider reallocating a small portion of your resources towards something that is truly making a difference in the world!

Please help us launch our next series of circles in January 2010!

It will include the following events (and more):

  • A three-day residential retreat for Jewish and Arab women near Jerusalem;
  • A two-day residential retreat for Palestinian women in the West Bank--the first ever!
  • A one-day workshop for Circlework leaders;
  • Two evening presentations;
  • Meetings with our partner organizations Interfaith, Beyond Words, and Holy Land Trust.

    • There are many ways to help:

    • Make a donation. Your donation of $250 will make it possible for a Palestinian woman to attend a two-day residential retreat, including tuition, meals, and accommodation.

    • Are you having a birthday? Are the holidays at hand? Ask friends to make a donation to the Institute for Circlework in lieu of the "stuff" they would otherwise give you.Donate safely online, call us, or send us a check. And remember, your donations are tax-deductible!

    • Host a potluck. For more information, click here.

    • Call 10 friends, ask them to view our video Voices from the 2009 Circlework Training, and, if they feel moved by it, make a donation.

    • Email your friends the link to the video: http://www.vimeo.com/7122122 Ask them to view it and, if it moves them, make a donation.
