I support Israel and God’s people and this organization does a very great job of helping people

The Bible teaches us that these are God's chosen people and we should help them and pray for them. We have been giving for several years now and we went to Israel twice. Loved walking on the land where Jesus walked. We are to be like Him and help when we can. There are many people there who need your financial support. Share what you have with God's chosen people. Bless them and God will bless you. Love Israel and pray 🙏 daily for them.
This charity is a scam organization
This charity is a scam organization. And the fact Trustpilot shows it as 4-stars proves Trustpilot can be bought.
This is not a legit organization
This is not a legit organization. It is a SCAM. First they told you “holocaust Jews are starving in Israel” and that was proven to be a LIE. Israel takes care of their citizens, they don’t need more money. Then they said they needed your money after Oct 7, which wasn’t a prolonged war but an attack that was over in 24 hours. Now they are saying “Jews are suffering in Ukraine” so they need more of your money. What they don’t tell you is “EVERYONE IS SUFFERING IN UKRAINE” and “UKRAINE ALREADY RECEIVES BILLIONS IN HUMANITARIAN SUPPORT!!”
This scam org is not helping anyone but THEMSELVES. The former president paid to have criticism removed from the internet. His daughter is worth tens of millions and it ALL CAME FROM RUNNING THIS SCAM!!!”
Everyone who works at this scam should be ashamed of themselves. Find a true charity to work at, not a “charity org” that “needs” $50 million each year in advertising costs.

After contacting management, it seems the organization doesn't care if their funds are used to support unethical and harmful activity.
My mother is on a limited income
My mother is on a limited income. She originally started to donate to this organization, but decided to shift her donation into another organization. I contacted the organization and they said that they would stop taking funds and they understood. But here we are three months later and they still continue to take out money monthly. I’ve contacted them at least three times and asked him to stop taking the donation and they agreed. They confirmed my mom’s account and said it was taken care of. this morning I looked on my Mom’s account and they took it out again. Just goes to show you that they are more worried about money than people, especially in older people's financial situations, very sad. They should be able to do what they say when they say they are going to stop they should stop.

I was planning to start a monthly contribution until I learned that exec Yael Eckstien takes a salary of $930,000 of your contributions off the top. At $25 a box she is taking the equivalent of 37,200 boxes away from intended parties. IFCJ has the lowest contribution received by recipients that I have ever seen. Only 47% of what you contribute to IFCJ ever goes to recipients. Comparatively Tunnels to Towers contributes 97% of its donations to recipients. This practice of IFCJ should be illegal. I read that ifcj scrubs their negative reviews. Let's see if this ever makes it up.

Some years ago as an insurance agent I incurred a car accident which led to what was called permanent brain damage - 8 th grade IQ, PTSD, various broken bones, and Chronic Fatigue.
I spent @ 20 years on permanent disability with a prognosis of INCURABLE. The Fellowship consistently supported me throughout this crisis. I recovered years later and became a Naturopath-Nutritionist. Naturopathy By Lee ND
Scam Artists
The IFCJ CEO, an american woman living in Israel, takes home between $700-$900k a year as her salary for the non-profit. She should try giving some of her salary to the holocaust survivors she claims to want to help. Do not give this scammer your money.
I get very much joy when I think that
I get very much joy when I think that
a widow or Holocaust survivor might
know that they are not forgotten and that someone cares and is sending a
blessing to them. I also believe the gift is in the giving.I might not be able to give a lot, but I ask Yehus to
multiply the gift as he did the fishes
and loaves that fed many. It's a
great blessing to me to help God's
people!

The so-called charity is a scam they target elderly people who don’t have money to give for their BS cause furthermore, I’ve asked them to stop sending mailings to my house and they assured me time again that they would but I keep receiving correspondence week after week and I keep asking to be removed with no resolution
Update:
I have contacted you to be removed on the following dates
Feb 15th
June 25th
July 5th
And august 24 th
All I ever get is your say BS line “we would be happy to remove you blah blah blah” then I just keep getting your junk

Reply from International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
A Christian's Heart United with the Jewish People
As a Christian and a person who is now retired, it is important to know that there are people who are willing to help those in need. That is what IFCJ does. The Lord God of Abraham , Isaac and Jacob put the love of the Jewish people and Israel in my heart back in the late 80s through a song I heard called Come Let Us Go Up by Israel's Hope. I have been to Israel twice and have felt the connection with the Jewish people. The people who have come to Israel from other countries, especially Holocaust survivors, need help now. That is why I was prompted by the Lord to become a monthly contributor. Shalom and blessings.
The fellowship is filled with truly wonderful caring and loving people.
The fellowship is filled with truly wonderful people who
give of their time to help Jewish people in need. I am proud to be part of this truly amazing organization
May God Bless all who help thise in need.
My love for Gods chosen people
I have loved the Jewish people since I was a child. We once had a guest in our home when I was young and she brought her mother with her. She was a Holocaust survivor. I remember we were all at the dining room table but the mother would not come to eat with us and chose to remain in the living room. I can remember that hurt my heart so much but as a child I didn't know why. I wanted to go sit with her but was told to leave her alone. I wish I had chosen to disobey my parents and gone to just hold her hand. When I first started seeing the International Fellowship commercials I immediately started to cry. I felt that same longing to just hold those sweet precious hands and let them know I loved them. I am almost 79 now and my heart still aches for the Jewish people especially Holocaust survivors. I can't hold their hands but I can let them know I love them with my monthly gift. I still cry everytime I see the commercials. Please let them know this old Christian woman has always cared.
Home to the Holy Land .........I joined the International Fellowship…
I joined the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews because it helps God's chosen people access life-sustaining benefits. When I first heard about IFCJ on Trinity Broadcasting Network, they were trying to help Jews get back home to the Holy Land. That touched my heart because of what home means to me, and I wanted God's people to have what God gave them long ago.
Why I Give - Trustworthy endorsement Mike Huckabee & Family Starvation No One Should Endure
Our US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, is a strong Christian and supporter of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ) therefore I had complete trust in making a monthly recurring donation of $50. My heartfelt goal in donating is to meet the need of Jews in Israel and elsewhere in need of reliable food donations from IFCJ.
Add if you like: In addition to honoring Holocaust survivors in general . . .
My own family starved during WWII in Germany with one baby girl infant murdered by Nazi doctors by injection for lack of food - deflecting all nutrition to the Nazi war effort. No one should go hungry - especially Holocaust survivors and elderly Jews.

As Christians we should be praying for…
As Christians we should be praying for Israel and her people. The Bible instructs us to.
We should also give to support the elderly and vulnerable Jewish people.
What a joy to give to IFCJ and know that every cent is helping someone in need.
First of all I love the Jewish people
First of all I love the Jewish people, God’s chosen people. I give because I want to help the IFCJ as they minister to all those in need whether it be spiritual or physical needs. I believe God’s word. I will bless those who bless Israel and I will curse those who curse Israel. Genesis 12:3
The Fellowship brings the Lord's Goodness
The Fellowship is doing such lifesaving and loving work in helping those in need, those that have nowhere else to turn but to God. The workers in the Fellowship are tireless in their efforts, and my Lord moves me to help whenever and how much I can.
