A conservative blogger criticized the Combined Jewish Philanthropies (CJP) for providing funding through its Donor Advised Funds to organizations he considered anti-Israel. The blogger listed 10 such organizations, including the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee and New Israel Fund. CJP's president defended the vetting process for organizations and said funding only went to legitimate activities, not anti-Israel work.
