01What it does

What Shazur Interwoven Inc does

Mission

For millennia, Jewish solidarity has ensured our survival. However, many Israelis, having grown up with little regard for the Diaspora, are unfamiliar with global Jewry. Interwoven strives to fundamentally transform Israelis' relationship with American Jews in all their diversity, shifting perceptions from ignorance, indifference, and even condescension to mutual responsibility, accountability, and dedication to a shared destiny with their brothers and sisters abroad. In doing so we ensure the continued unity and resilience of the Jewish people.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Israeli Leadership Missions to the US: We design and implement week-long missions to the U.S. that educate Israeli thought leaders on contemporary Jewish life in America, aiming to transform their perceptions of American Jewry. Each mission immerses participants in first-hand experiences with American Jewish organizations, leaders, and congregations, offering a direct encounter with the diverse and vibrant landscape of Jewish life in the U.S. Through these experiences, participants build meaningful connections, fostering a deeper understanding and stronger bridges between the two centers of the Jewish People. Our initiatives reach a wide range of demographics, and in 2023 alone, we brought over 200 Israeli leaders and influencers on 10 unique missions to the U.S. We are on track to reach 12 missions in 2024, continuing to expand this impactful exchange.

  2. Educational Programs: Shazur designs and facilitates classes and workshops across various educational settings for adults, students and teens, focused on Jewish Peoplehood and the relationship between American Jewry and Israel. In 2023-2024, we partnered with ANU - The Museum of the Jewish People to create a full-day symposium on Jewish peoplehood. Using video clips we produced and a custom-developed interactive phone app, over 6,500 Jewish-Israeli high school students explored their relationship with Jews abroad, laying the groundwork for a deeper connection with the global Jewish community.

  3. Heschel's Passover Eve American Tour: Shazur was proud to produce the U.S. version of Heschel's Passover Eve, a play that delves into the life of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, a visionary American Jewish leader, and his perspectives on Jewish peoplehood and identity in the 20th century. In addition to producing the play, we managed its distribution across Jewish venues throughout the United States, bringing it to 20 different communities. To deepen the impact, we ran educational programs designed to help audiences engage with and process the play's themes.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2020 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income rose $50k → $80k.

2 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 55% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of SHAZUR INTERWOVEN INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

SHAZUR INTERWOVEN INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 49% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

70% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund SHAZUR INTERWOVEN INC.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

Where its funders are

55% of SHAZUR INTERWOVEN INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $115k that is directly attributable, 67% of it comes from funders outside New York, across 3 states.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $142k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
