Шаблон:Undisclosed paid The Genesis Philanthropy Group (GPG) is a global family of foundations, co-founded by Mikhail Fridman, an international businessman and philanthropist, and his business partners.[1][2] In 2022 after Russian invasion in Ukraine the EU imposed sanctions on Fridman, who said the EU's allegations were false and defamatory. After that the Charity Commission has opened a statutory inquiry into and frozen the bank account.[3] An interim manager was subsequently appointed.[4]

GPG supports causes which strengthen Jewish identity all over the world, advancing Jewish engagement into the 21st century to create a more diverse and connected global Jewish community.[5] [6]

GPG's work is inspired by its founders’ commitment to:

  • strengthening Jewish identity among Russian-speaking Jews worldwide.[7]
  • fostering bonds and common understanding between Jews living in Israel and in the Diaspora.[8]
  • developing innovative formats geared towards the expansion of Jewish engagement opportunities.[9]
  • expanding local and global Jewish connection opportunities in the UK and Spain.[10][11]

In January 2014, Gennady Gazin was elected chairman of the board. Ilia Salita, the former president and CEO of the foundation, died in June 2020.[12] Marina Yudborovksy was appointed as GPG's new CEO in July 2020.[13][14]

In partnership with the State of Israel, GPG launched the “Our Common Destiny” initiative in 2019 to strengthen the bonds among Jews worldwide.[15] The Declaration of Our Common Destiny sets out five deeply-held values that unite the Jewish people[16] and was endorsed by Israel's president Reuven Rivlin as a “roadmap for the Jewish future”.[17]
