Established in 1979 as a volunteer charity with the motto what you give is what you get, CFI was designed by its founders, Arthur and Hadassah Marcus, to enable one hundred percent of donations to reach charities in Israel. Over the years, CFI has received the Jerusalem Prize for volunteerism, accolades from the Chief Rabbinate, an award from PM Menachem Begin and accolades from hundreds of charities in Israel. We do not solicit or advertise. By word of mouth alone we have grown into a significant charitable force in Israel. Aiding over 400 charities and institutions each year we help the nation of Israel to thrive.
