What The reThink Israel Initiative Inc does
Mission
The Organization provides the world, with relevant information about Israel, the country, its people and its traditions. The objective is to inform and educate people, and help them form accurate and informed opinions regarding Israel and its people.
As stated on its FY2019 Form 990.
Program
The Organizations targeted campaigns seek to move the lack of knowledge and growing apathy to one of engagement with Israelis and Israel. The Organization recently conducted a comprehensive study on American attitudes toward Israel, past and present. As a result, its unique Re-Think Israel social media campaign, was launched in the fourth quarter of 2013 focusing on young adults 18-24 years of age, with an emphasis on college students addressing Americans' increasingly disengaged relationship with Israel. The Organization has adopted a new website name in July of 2014 called "FromtheGrapevine.com." in addition to its presence on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Tumblr the social media realm.
The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $102k to $67k (−34%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 3 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
