ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION
Established in 2012, Fuente Latina’s (FL) mission is to increase Latinx (individuals from Latin America) support for Israel by ensuring that global Spanish language media have the facts they need to accurately cover Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, regardless of geographic location. By educating and empowering Latinx journalists to cover issues accurately, Fuente Latina breaks down stereotypes and increases positive perceptions for 600 million Spanish speakers globally.
GRANT PURPOSE
To launch the first and only bilingual Latin-Jewish news brand. The aim is to counter fake news stories fueling antisemitism while accurately informing non-Jewish Latinx under the age of 40 about Jews and Israel in a culturally and visually appealing way.
