the need within the Arabic speaking community is
great, and our dedicated volunteers are determined to
initiate this groundbreaking initiative.

HIV
Through outreach and education, we can make sure that young people in our
community are protected from HIV. Due to the dangerous rise in HIV in Israel within
the last few years, our guides and activists have been emphasizing the importance
of sexual health, and disproving misconceptions surrounding HIV.

OUR BUDGET
As you can see, our budget has grown drastically over the last year and we
have even more ambitious goals to reach in 2015. We are amazed by the
increased impact that our recent grown in funding and subsequent increase
in staff and volunteers afforded us. We have been able to continue our drive to
reach out to the most vulnerable populations on the edges of our community
both geographically and socially. The IGY family is expanding and we can
feel the change in every part of the organization.
Our work would not be possible without our dedicated supporters. In order
to maintain our current growth and momentum we require the support of
generous individuals and institutions in Israel and around the world. We invite
you to contact IGY to see how you can join us in making a difference in the
lives of LGBT youth throughout Israel. Help us make 2015 a year to remember!
We are
expanding
our reach.
