AZA & BBG's Global Treasury

The International Service Fund (ISF) is AZA & BBG’s treasury, fundraised for and managed by Alephs and BBGs worldwide. Since 2004, more than $1,500,000 has been raised by Alephs and B'nai B'rith Girls for philanthropic efforts. We allocate the funds of the ISF in three main ways:

Scholarship

The ISF provides money for Jewish teens around the world to participate in immersive BBYO experiences. Financial barriers should never stand in the way of any teen participating in BBYO.

Philanthropy

On behalf of AZA & BBG internationally, we will allocate money from the ISF to support other organizations making a difference in the world.

Crisis Response

The ISF is our outlet to serve the global community, before, during, and after emergency situations of all kinds—natural disasters and man made.

Notify Us

Please fill out the form below whenever money is sent to BBYO for the ISF. This allows us to ensure the contribution hits the ISF account and is protected for the treasury funds.
