A Life-Affirming Vision: A just and enduring peace in Israel and Palestine founded upon equal value, security, and opportunity for all.Description* We believe that if our world is to meet the big challenges that face us at this time in history, we must make peace in Israel and Palestine.* We believe a childs life can be changed for good by rebuilding her/his home and neighborhood.* We believe construction is the best response to destruction, that village-centered rebuilding eases trauma, build trust, strengthen peacemakers, and press officials to keep those neighborhoods standing.Fiscal Year 2013 saw one new project win the GlobalGiving.org Bonus Day Matching Grant Competition in March while another, a needed extension of an existing project realized its fundraising goals in the June Competition! With the funds we raised on GlobalGiving.org, Rebuilding Alliance:1)Launched a U.S. Movement to Save Palestinian Villages by requesting diplomatic intervention for villages at risk of demolition by the Israeli Army;2)Expanded the Birthing Center project to include a prenatal clinic at a 2nd location in the Jordan Valley, Area C of the West Bank.We also launched a vibrant speaker series at our shop in San Mateo. Our Palestine Crisis Map won the Ushahidi Deployment of the Week award.Rebuilding Alliances goals for FY2014 focus primarily on project development as we expand our construction projects, our Fair Trade sales, and our advocacy initiatives. 91662 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 6 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 5 5 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X DONNA BARANSKI-WALKER 6503254663 178 SOUTH BOULEVARD SAN MATEO CA 94402 DONNA BARANSKI WALKER 40.00 0.00 27500 0 0 KALI RUBAII 3.00 0.00 0 0 0 AMAL SALIM 1.00 0.00 0 0 0 CARIN PACIFICO 5.00 0.00 0 0 0 SOUZAN JABER 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 DINA SABA 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 27500 0 false false false 0 165617 4499 165617 0 45 45 0 0 0 0 0 0 34963 31581 3382 3382 SPECIAL EVENTS 3076 3076 3076 172120 6458 45 0 0 23006 23006 0 27500 20000 7500 0 35859 19554 16305 0 0 6444 5044 1400 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 764 764 0 0 0 10050 10050 0 0 50 50 0 0 262 262 0 Web Hosting and Design 1319 1319 UTILITIES 1463 725 738 PROGRAMS- US MOVEMENT- SAVE PA 2358 2358 PROGRAMS-REBUILDING TO REMAIN 5384 5384 12372 3458 8914 126831 91662 35169 0 5374 28664 15268 0 0 335 3010 0 0 0 5146 3698 220 0 4400 262 4138 0 0 0 0 1000 26343 40510 2216 2534 35002 3450 1269 1381 38487 7365 X -12144 33145 -12144 33145 26343 40510 45289 X true X false true false X 171437 150103 223347 162326 161217 868430 0 0 171437 150103 223347 162326 161217 868430 0 868430 0 0 4963 3076 8039 876469 0.99080 0.99420 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 4400 262 4138 4138 SALES TAX PAYABLE 65 PAYROLL TAXES PAYABLE 1219 CUSTOMER ADVANCE 97 1381 true MIDDLE EAST 0 0 HEALTH,EDUCATION, SOCIAL SEE 990 PART III 4A 32131 32131 32131 MIDDLE EAST CONSTRUCTION 23006 WIRE CASH 1 false false false false false false Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used in Foreign Country The Rebuilding Alliance (RA) researched potential partners to work with in each region we have interest in expanding our work to;2.
