In recent years,  and  have encouraged our members to become involved with community service both in and out of the Jewish community. The th/th (-) International Boards introduced Stand UP, today  Stand UP, ’s service, philanthropy and advocacy campaign. In September , the organization also formed the  Panim Institute, which offers premiere service learning opportunities to members and non-members of . The th/th (-) Executive Body ignited a renaissance of globalization—reconnecting  worldwide and establishing new partnerships with Jewish teen communities across the globe. The - programming year also yielded the introduction of Speak UP for Israel, 's campaign for Israel education and advocacy. In the fall of ,  introduced a revitalized brand for the organization, including a new logo and updated seals for the B’nai B’rith Girls and Aleph Zadik Aleph. The th/th (-) Executive Body and their programming positioned  and  as the future of Jewish peoplehood, as  teens led the 1956 1961 1973 Israel Summer Institute established. Noar LeNoar, BBYO’s first counterpart in Israel, founded. Close to 1,000 BBYO teens from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela meet for a two-week Jewish Youth Congress. 21
