In the heart of Jerusalem, the newly developed StandWithUs Katz Education Center is the first of its kind internationally and comprises of:
The new facility host tens of thousands of visitors each year and has a virtual, digital space for online teaching sessions and programming. It is located on the historic intersection between King David Street and George Washington Street, in the heart of Jerusalem.
THE NEW CENTER INCLUDES
Auditorium to house the StandWithUs Israel Education Experience
Hosting engaging Israel presentations by our dynamic staff. State-of-the-art presentations provide an attractive, multimedia experience.
On-camera, interactive Studio Experience
Using advanced technology, groups and individuals enhance their debate skills and learn how to better stand up for Israel.
Through a simulated TV News Presenter, large audiences learn point/counterpoint skills by watching their peers and learning from experts. They learn more about Israel and sign up to be an ambassador, via an activity utilizing cutting-edge interactive digital screens.
Digital Hub
The Center houses our Social Media / Digital operation and is also a space to teach online skills to groups of all ages who would like to support digital educational and advocacy campaigns.
In time of crisis, the facility acts as a hub to lead pro-Israel activity on social media, the platform for today and tomorrow’s voices for Israel. With one billion interactions a year, StandWithUs is well-placed to leverage this new facility to become a center for virtual learning and inspiration about Israel.
Studio
A fully equipped studio to interview thought leaders and celebrities while broadcasting StandWithUs videos to millions with the capability to converse with people both on location and internationally. Further content creation to appeal to divergent audiences, Jewish and non-Jewish, young and old. We do this in English, Hebrew and also Arabic.
WITH ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, AN INTERACTIVE, IMMERSIVE ISRAEL EXPERIENCE THAT BRINGS VISITORS IN THEIR TENS OF THOUSANDS THROUGH THE DOOR AND TRANSFORMS THEM TO BECOME INSPIRED AND ENERGIZED AMBASSADORS FOR ISRAEL!
During the pandemic, we learned a lot about reaching people in an effective way utilizing virtual platforms. The new space works as both a physical and virtual learning center — allowing us to reach large numbers of people all around the world.
EMPOWERING TENS OF THOUSANDS TO FIGHT ANTISEMITISM AND SUPPORT ISRAEL
StandWithUs has been active in Israel since 2006. In 2015, we opened our current offices on King David Street, across from the King David Hotel, with a ceremony featuring then-Mayor of Jerusalem, Nir Barkat, and sponsors Evelyn and Dr. Shmuel Katz. Since then, we have hosted tens of thousands of students and tourists from all over the world each year. Our activities have expanded to run exciting, educational Israel workshops in Israel each year, hosted on site.
In a regular year, tens of thousands of students and tourists already come to us from all over the world, and we are also able to inspire young Israelis to represent Israel on the world stage, all from our central location.
There is a municipal street sign dedicated to StandWithUs in Hebrew, English and Arabic outside the King David Hotel, pointing the way to the StandWithUs Education Center which is located alongside the historic YMCA building, all on the symbolic intersection between King David and George Washington Streets.
Our programs have grown strategically and quickly, and we have simply run out of space. We now have the opportunity to expand our innovative activities into the adjacent, vacant space which could accommodate even more visitors each year, significantly increasing our outreach to students, community members, tourists and groups.
Our social media footprint has grown internationally with over a billion interactions each year, and our digital team is creating original video content on a daily basis, despite inadequate space and facilities. We must invest in our unprecedented success and improve our provisions so that we can create even more content and reach greater numbers of people. StandWithUs has become a source of dependable news in real-time, around-the-clock, with our excellent, cutting edge, educational content.
We are offering a variety of unique opportunities to be part of our legacy in the heart of Jerusalem. To find out more about sponsorship opportunities for rooms and areas in the new center, please complete your details here and we will be in touch.
