THE GLOBAL TREASURY OF AZA & BBG
The International Service Fund (ISF) is AZA and BBG's treasury that allows Alephs and BBGs to be engaged in the affairs of the global Jewish community. The ISF grants its funds in a variety of ways. The ISF can provide scholarships for teens around the world to attend BBYO's immersive experiences, serves as the pool of money from which we make donations to charities on behalf of the Grand and International Orders, and allows us to support communities in times of need.
The AZA and BBG Executive Bodies determine how the ISF is allocated, through annual allocation meetings. By donating to the ISF, you are supporting the teen executives of this Movement to make philanthropic donations on behalf of BBYO. Once large allocations are made, this site will be updated with everything involving the allocation decision. Thank you for your contributions!
ISF provides money for Jewish teens around the world to participate in immersive BBYO experiences like International Convention, ambassadors trips, and summer programs. Money should never stand in the way for any teen, anywhere and everywhere, from participating in BBYO.
Stand UP serves as the philanthropic conduit for AZA and BBG charity. On behalf of AZA and BBG internationally, we will allocate money from the International Service Fund to support organizations making a difference in the world. When we make large donations on behalf of our Movement, it shows the world that teens can, and do, make a real difference.
When disaster strikes, AZA and BBG will be there. ISF is our outlet to serve the global community, Jewish or non-Jewish, before, during, and after emergency situations of all kinds—natural disaster and man-made. These efforts teach Alephs and BBGs everywhere to be more globally minded and learn about current events around the world.
The International Service Fund (ISF) Clubs recognize chapters who show an unwavering commitment to raising, prioritizing, and distributing much needed tzedakah around the globe. Deserving chapters contribute to ISF at Bronze ($250+), Silver ($750+), Gold ($1,500+), and Platinum ($3,000+) levels to provide Jewish teens worldwide with need-based scholarship to participate in BBYO and Jewish life, give charity when it is needed proactively and at times of crisis, and give to their BBYO Stand UP philanthropy at the chapter level.
