The Penn Israel Coalition is a grassroots, non-partisan, pro-Israel umbrella organization made up of Democrats, Republicans and Independents; liberals and conservatives; Jews and non-Jews; religious and secular, students and teachers. We are members of the Penn community united by our steadfast support of Israel's right to exist as a Jewish, democratic state with safe and secure borders. Our goals are to raise awareness about issues relating to Israel and to strengthen the relationship between the Penn community, the United States and Israel both on campus and in the community at large.
