Who are we? A Wider Bridge was founded by Arthur Slepian in 2010 to provide opportunities for LGBTQ people in North America to build meaningful relationships with Israel and LGBTQ people in Israel. From its outset, AWB has provided LGBTQ people with the opportunity to engage with Israel in ways that matter to them personally, and to demonstrate that they have a stake in Israel and its future.
What do we offer 20s and 30s? A Wider Bridge builds a strong relationship between the LGBTQ communities in North America and Israel; advances LGBTQ Inclusion in Israel through Impact Grants to LGBTQ-focused Israeli organizations; and advocates for justice, counters LGBTQphobia, and fights antisemitism and other forms of hatred.
