Bridges Partners LLC
Bridges Partners LLC operates the Esther Project — paying American Christian influencers $7,000 per post to create pro-Israel content funded by the Israeli government.
Corporate History
Bridges Partners LLC registered under FARA on September 1, 2025, disclosing a $900,000 contract with the State of Israel routed through Havas Media Germany GmbH.
The entity operates the "Esther Project" — a program designed to recruit American Christian social media influencers to create and distribute pro-Israel content. Per FARA filings, influencers are compensated at a rate of $7,000 per qualifying social media post.
The name "Esther Project" references the biblical Book of Esther, in which Queen Esther advocates for the Jewish people before the Persian king. The naming is strategically chosen to resonate with evangelical Christian audiences who view support for Israel through a biblical lens.
The program targets American evangelical Christian influencers specifically — individuals with established followings in faith-based communities. By compensating these influencers to create pro-Israel content, the program leverages existing trust relationships between influencers and their audiences.
Per FARA requirements, content created under this program should be disclosed as foreign agent materials. However, the degree to which individual influencer posts carry such disclosures is a key compliance question.
Bridges Partners is notable for having Israeli principals directly involved in the entity — unlike Clock Tower X and Show Faith by Works, which are US-owned entities contracted through Havas.
