Conserving ancient synagogues, mosaics, and historic landmarks within our national parks.

Slide 1 of 6: Restoring Israel's heritage sites

Our mission

Protecting the land, wildlife, and heritage of Israel — for generations to come.

American Friends of INHF Inc. is the U.S. 501(c)(3) that raises funds and friends for INHF’s work with the Israel Nature and Parks Authority. INHF is the Israeli partner, not this organization.

What we protect

Four pillars, one shared inheritance.

Everything we support falls into one of these four areas — and every one of them protects something that can't be replaced.

  1. Defend Endangered Wildlife

    Rescuing injured sea turtles, rehabilitating Persian fallow deer, and reintroducing species back to their biblical habitats.

  2. Preserve Ancient History

    Restoring rare Roman-era mosaics and ancient synagogues at sites like Hamat Tiberias before time and the elements erase them forever.

  3. Educate the Next Generation

    Instilling a deep love for the land by bringing thousands of youth into national parks for hands-on conservation education.

  4. Protect Natural Biodiversity

    Safeguarding delicate ecosystems and open landscapes from encroachment, pollution, and uncontrolled development.

Fieldwork

From sea turtle rescues to ancient mosaics, each project is a small act of stewardship for something irreplaceable.
