What Mosaic United does

Mosaic United is a Public Benefit Corporation founded in 2015 and headquartered in Jerusalem, with a US presence in Southfield, Michigan. It operates as the global initiative of Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, with a mission to strengthen Jewish identity and connections to Israel among young Jews worldwide. The organization does not sell products or services; instead, it functions as a strategic grantmaker and convenor, channeling philanthropic and government funding through competitive RFPs to a network of 200+ partner organizations across 42+ countries. Its three programmatic pillars are Mifgashim (encounters between Israeli and Diaspora teens), Talent Development (professional training for informal Jewish educators), and Innovation & Entrepreneurship (an RFP-driven funding platform offering $25K-$1M to organizations developing new engagement models).

Revenue is derived from philanthropic donations (tax-recognized in both the US and Israel) and direct funding from Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs. Over its first decade (2015-2025), Mosaic United deployed approximately $350 million alongside the Government of Israel and philanthropic partners, reaching nearly 300,000 Jewish teens and young adults. In July 2026, it launched a new multi-year strategy committing nearly $40 million in new investment, including $12M for the Innovation Track and $16.5M for expanded mifgashim programs. The organization operates with a lean team of approximately 15 employees, supported by an external governance structure comprising a Steering Committee, Board of Directors, and Advisory Board. Distribution and program delivery are executed entirely through partner organizations (youth movements, Hillel, JFNA, Jewish Agency, summer camps, etc.) rather than direct-to-consumer channels, with an additional Volunteer Hub portal for supporter engagement.
