ISRAEL GUIDE DOG CENTER FOR THE BLIND
The mission of the Israel Guide Dog Center for the Blind is to improve the quality of life of visually impaired Israelis by providing them with independence, mobility and self confidence, as well as renewed self-esteem and companionship through the use of guide dogs. What we do: We breed, raise and train the guide dogs at our facility in Beit Oved, Israel, just south of Tel Aviv. When a blind Israeli requests our assistance, we transport them to our center, house and feed them for three weeks during training, and provide an additional week of training in their homes. We also provide follow-up care twice a year to make sure that the partnership is still working properly. This is all done AT NO COST TO THE BLIND! We are able to provide these services through the generosity of our donors – who have the vision to help those less fortunate. Our annual budget is just over $2.7 Million dollars, and as of December 2017, we had produced over 600 partnerships between Israelis who are blind or visually impaired and professionally trained guide dogs. Secondary Mission: In 2013 we added a secondary mission by providing Service Companions to people with Special Needs. While half of our dogs are selected for guide dog training, 50% fail to meet our exacting standards during evaluations, but these amazingly well trained dogs can still help people. In 2013 we formalized a program to repurpose these "career-change" dogs and provide them to blind children, autistic children, soldiers with PTSD or other adults with a variety of special needs. All of the dogs we produce go to loving homes and serve a purpose by helping people in need.

INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN COMMUNICATION INC
WorldView is growing. Instead of one ministry, we are becoming two. Our enthusiasm for all people from all cultures to know the Gospel has not changed. We are selling the building that has long been known as WorldView Center. The passion for helping people in a multicultural community is still very real and will be known as Sanctuary Inn. The ministry known as WorldView or the training part of WorldView is still thriving and will continue to be known as WorldView. Both ministries will be moving in the next few months. This means charges in locations, addresses, web sites, and newsletters and other communications. We are excited and challenged about what lies ahead for the two ministries. We have shared “history” and we believe that God has great plans for our futures.

Men Can Stop Rape
Men Can Stop Rape (MCSR) seeks to mobilize men to use their strength for creating cultures free from violence, especially men’s violence against women. In 1997, the founders of MCSR pioneered a different way of addressing the epidemic of violence against women. Though the majority of violent acts against women are committed by men, most prevention efforts are risk-reduction and self-defense tactics directed at women. The founders wanted to shift the responsibility of deterring harm away from women by promoting healthy, nonviolent masculinity. Their vision offered a plan for prevention that outlines positive, proactive solutions for engaging men as allies and inspiring them to feel motivated to end men’s violence against women. More than a decade later, MCSR continues to successfully mobilize male youth to prevent men’s violence against women; inspire young men to create their own positive definitions of masculinity; develop healthy relationships with others; embrace the concept of personal responsibility; work in partnership with female peers; and do their part to end violence and build safe communities.
