Re-Opening of the Renovated Jerusalem Cinematheque The Jerusalem Foundation Annual Report 2007 From the President

Dear Friends, The Jerusalem Foundation is proud of our accomplishments on behalf of Jerusalem and all its residents. In every neighborhood of the city, one encounters landmarks of our long journey and the effort to promote a free, pluralistic, modern and tolerant society in Jerusalem. We are happy to share with you the Jerusalem Foundation's Annual Report for 2007, a year in which we raised a total of $27.6 million in pledges and grants. This brings the total of all donations received by the Foundation in Jerusalem since its establishment to $725 million (about $1.25 billion if adjusted for inflation). The Foundation's allocations for the purpose of initiating, developing and operating projects in 2007 totaled nearly $37.3 million, of which just over 45% funded programs and the balance funded physical projects and preservation. The year 2007 broke two major records in terms of money received in Jerusalem and money expended on projects, but it was also a year during which many physical projects were completed using funds from previous years' donations, and planning began on many new major projects, thus accounting for the discrepancy between funds raised and money expended. In the course of 2007, the Jerusalem Foundation began a comprehensive process to help shape The Jerusalem Foundation our strategic plan, reaffirming our commitment on all levels to strengthening community, culture and coexistence in the city. The Foundation's ongoing contribution to all aspects of life in the city is only possible because of the loyalty and support of friends worldwide and the cooperation of various organizations and bodies, and their directors and staff. The Foundation is encouraged in its work by our board members in and abroad, whose active personal involvement is imbued with love and devotion. The Jerusalem Foundation has remained steadfast as the single most influential foundation dedicated solely to Jerusalem and harnessing the strength of its communities, heritage, beauty and culture

to build a better tomorrow, and our work continues. Annual Report 2007 Thank you for your partnership.

Ruth Cheshin International President The Jerusalem Foundation

Jerusalem is a city that is revered and cherished around the world and is also the heart and soul of the Jewish people - the eternal capital. The Jerusalem Foundation, understanding the universality of Jerusalem and its importance as the focal point for Jews worldwide for over 3000 years, is at the forefront of efforts to ensure that Jerusalem will become a modern open vibrant city while at the same time preserving the history of the city. All citizens of Jerusalem on a daily basis reap the rewards from the efforts of the Jerusalem Foundation. Jerusalem would be unrecognizable without the Jerusalem Foundation; without its community centers, sports complexes, parks, children’s playgrounds, libraries, theaters, museums, without its arts schools and central science labs, with fewer daycares and homes for the elderly, with poorer school facilities and less educational innovation. For over 40 years, the Jerusalem Foundation has pioneered much of the archaeological discovery and preservation projects including the excavations, the major gates of the Old City Walls, the Museum and much more. Someone, somewhere, benefits from a Jerusalem Foundation project every minute of every day and every night. The Foundation’s work touches every population — Jewish, Muslim and Christian — of every social group of every age, in every neighborhood of the city. Founded 40 years ago by the legendary Mayor of Jerusalem, , the Jerusalem Foundation has an unmatched track record in creating and nurturing philanthropy projects in Israel. Today, the Foundation is led by Ruth Cheshin together with the Foundation’s International Chairman, . The Jerusalem Foundation Annual Report 2007 THE VISION

Jerusalem reflects the hope and meaning of Jewish existence and continuity. Without compromising the unique status that Jerusalem holds in Jewish tradition, the Jerusalem Foundation seeks to promote and encourage the development of the universality of Jerusalem and its relevance to Christianity and Islam, as well as a free, vibrant, tolerant and modern society in Jerusalem. THE MISSION

The Jerusalem Foundation The Jerusalem Foundation works toward creating an open, equitable and modern society by responding to the needs of the residents and trying to improve their quality of life.

Annual Report 2007

Community Building and Economic Vitality

Coexistence — Living Together

Cultural Life and Creativity THE VALUES

The Jerusalem Foundation is the only organization in Jerusalem that has a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of the city, has strong and lasting relationships with all authorities and organizations that play a role in Jerusalem and has a record of 40 years of successful partnerships with Jerusalem communities, and friends abroad.

The Foundation acts as impartial arbitrator and objective broker in Jerusalem for the competing interests of the various government departments, non- governmental agencies, other charities and local community volunteers.

The Jerusalem Foundation provides full accountability and open reporting to its donors by maintaining ongoing contact with and supervision of all its projects in Jerusalem. The Jerusalem Foundation

The Jerusalem Foundation provides all services in house through its overseas department, projects department, accounting and technical departments, legal department and more.

The Foundation holds regular meetings and seminars with policy makers, experts and academics on the changing needs in Jerusalem to consistently reassess projects and issues in need of attention.

The Jerusalem Foundation’s “designated donation” method, which pairs Annual Report 2007 potential donors with projects in areas of their interest, encourages the donor’s ongoing personal involvement with the project and the community.

The Foundation builds a partnership between the donor and Jerusalem residents and creates a long-term relationship that can often last for generations. CULTURE in Jerusalem F or over 40 years the Jerusalem Foundation has been pursuing its strong belief that cultural activity reflects and gives expression to the intense spirituality, diversity, and uniqueness of Jerusalem. Culture enriches the lives of residents and a strong cultural identity lifts the spirits, it enlivens the city, strengthens social solidarity and expands the economy. In the varied cultural mosaic of Jerusalem, each community makes their own special cultural contribution to the multicultural fabric of the society. Making each of these groups strong through culture and then connecting them together, ultimately strengthens the whole community of Jerusalem with a rich tapestry of culture.

Jerusalem cannot be understood in the same context as the rest of the country and needs a special strategic and social approach to bridging the gap between peoples and preparing for a better future. 28

Annual Report 2007 COMMUNITY in Jerusalem T eddy Kollek, the founder of the Jerusalem Foundation, was often quoted as saying that creating a state was ultimately far easier than the craft of building a society. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Jerusalem where a great fault line exists between east and west, between the disadvantaged and advantaged, between religions, ethnicities and sectors. The challenges in Jerusalem are enormous but the goal of the Jerusalem Foundation is to invest in the human potential of the city and to foster and create economic vitality. The key to creating and strengthening communities in Jerusalem lies in finding the right combination of programming and facilities. We can help to develop the ability to successfully integrate into a work environment and provide the tools to initiate change, away from dependence on the system toward creating social solidarity and strengthening community networks. We can make a real investment in improving the quality of education and encouraging values education in Jerusalem. Overcoming all the obstacles, the Jerusalem Foundation is creating a vital community in Jerusalem. Community Projects 2007
