This month V.O.I.C.E.S. will support IYAG, a 501(c)(3) in Washington, DC that aims to empower high school students from diverse backgrounds to become leaders in interfaith dialogue and service, guiding them to create their own year-long community service initiatives with both a local and global expression, using the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals as their platform.

About IYAG

In June 2010, ML Resources Social Vision, a venture philanthropy that invests and supports innovative pilot initiatives, and 9/11 Unity Walk, a not-for-profit organization that brings people of all backgrounds and faiths together to walk in unity, partnered to launch the Interfaith Youth Action Group (IYAG). IYAG is a pilot initiative in the Washington, D.C. area that builds on previous efforts by the Tony Blair Faith Foundation’s Faiths Act Fellows. It aims to empower high school students from diverse backgrounds to become leaders in interfaith dialogue and service, guiding them to create their own year-long community service initiatives with both a local and global expression, using the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals as their platform. www.theiyag.com
