Israeli advocacy star Eylon Levy launches private public diplomacy project
After being dismissed from his position as English-language government spokesperson, Eylon Levy launched a new crowdfunding campaign on the JGive website in order to fund a private international advocacy project under his leadership, which will promote his and other spokespersons’ independent public diplomacy efforts. Four days into the campaign, Levy managed to raise $308,228 donated by 1,408 individuals.
In the summary accompanying the crowdfunding campaign, Levy wrote: “Since October 7th, my team of volunteers and I have built a unique pro-Israel communication machine. We are insiders — with close ties to the IDF and Israeli government — yet operate independently. We have changed the face of Israeli advocacy but we need your help to keep fighting.”
