Funding towards the work of the B’nai B’rith UK Bureau of International Affairs
The Bureau of International Affairs was founded by B’nai B’rith UK in March 1998 as an Associate Office of B’nai B’rith International’s Centre for Human Rights and Public Policy in Washington DC.
The mission of the Bureau is to serve and protect the interests, welfare and security of Jewish people, the State of Israel and to uphold the human rights of minority peoples globally. It was set up to address the need for a pro-active, strategic European organisation to engage with the diplomatic community on behalf of the Jewish people.
By focusing on decision-makers and influencers, its objective is to be a positive influence on policy developments affecting the State of Israel and Jewish interests generally.

Qiryat Gat is the development town which has been the focus of a major part of BBUK’s fund raising for more than 30 years.
The town has absorbed 30,000 immigrants from 40 different origins, including Ethiopia, Russia and Central Asia, giving the town a high unemployment figure and many challenges among its inhabitants.
Over the years, BBUK has been involved in a number of projects in Qiryat Gat and the current one involves raising funds for the provision of regular food parcels for needy families.

After 26 years of successfully raising more than £130,000 in the Concerts for Shoes Programme, this Programme has now ended. However, due to the Ukraine war, the Tikvah Children’s Home is in more need than ever.
