IsraAID	Goals	Benefits
Coordination	Improves coordination and collaboration between IsraAID members during development and relief work on the ground in developing countries.	With collaboration, members can help each other fill resource gaps and enhance each other’s work through volunteer management, professional development, knowledge, funding and in kind donations.
Education	Holds a quarterly conference and training session for IsraAID members on international humanitarian issues.	Conferences and training sessions draw on the expertise of member organizations, helping to broaden the overall knowledge base of all members on issues which many may have not had previous exposure to in the past. Each organization can benefit by using this knowledge in the field.
Impact	Allows 35 organizations to stand together with one voice, presenting to people around the world the giving side of Israel and its humanitarian involvement in developing countries.	Collaboration allows IsraAID members to become a stronger force to content with by having exposure to more resources and tools. This benefits both large and small member organizations in demonstrating Israel’s humanitarian involvement to people in Israel and around the world.
