About Rebuilding Alliance
Our Mission:
Rebuilding Alliance is dedicated to advancing equal rights for the Palestinian people through education, advocacy, and support that assures Palestinian families the right to a home, schooling, economic security, safety, and a promising future.
Our Life-Affirming Vision:
To realize a just and enduring peace in Palestine and Israel founded upon equal rights, equal security, and equal opportunity for all.
Since registering as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in 2003, Rebuilding Alliance has been working with coalitions of people and groups around the world who are dedicated to helping war-torn neighborhoods rebuild and promoting citizen and diplomatic engagement, worldwide, to make them safe. We started by partnering with Palestinian and Israeli Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) to help Palestinian communities rebuild and keep their villages standing — and we still do.
Since our launch in 2003, Rebuilding Alliance has been amplifying the voices of Palestinian and Israeli peacemakers and their communities. Together we are a significant voice for recognition of planning rights, village-centered rebuilding, and human rights.
