The American Fund for Israel Institutions will change its name to the American-Israel Cultural Foundation, it was learned here today. An announcement to this effect will be made next Monday at the annual dinner-concert of the organization which will bring to a climax the Fund’s 1956 campaign for $1,450, 000.

The American Fund for Israel Institutions is the leading supporter of the cultural life of Israel. The Fund supports Israel’s most important institutions in the fields of music drama, art, dance and letters, through such cultural groups as the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Inbal Ballet, Habimah Theatre and Tel Aviv Museum, as well as an active cultural exchange program between the United States and Israel.
