The Free Yezidi Foundation is designed to assist Yezidis in need. The Foundation was established shortly after terrorists attempted to eradicate the Yezidi people in August 2014. The Free Yezidi Foundation seeks to implement projects to protect and support the most vulnerable members of the Yezidi community.

Free Yezidi Foundation

FYF provides an environment for children to be safe and enjoy enriching activities, despite their harsh environment. As survivors and witnesses to the 2014 genocide living in protracted displacement, Yezidi children require specialized care to promote healing and long-term resilience. In addition, FYF safe spaces for children liberate Yezidi women, who can then pursue education or employment.

Yezidi Children's Safe Space

FYF is a women-led organisation which priorities services by and for Yezidi women. These services range from education, training, human rights awareness, legal guidance, combatting GBV, and skills provision. FYF seeks support in order to implement and oversee a wide range of activities to benefit Yezidi women, including those recovering from genocide and sexual enslavement.

Yezidi Women's Services

This effort will support Free Yezidi Foundation as we seek justice and accountability for crimes committed by ISIS against Yezidis of Iraq. Thousands of Yezidi women and children were kidnapped in august 2014, men were killed. women and girls were sold as sex slaves in Iraqi and Syrian markets and subjected to unspeakable rape, abuse, and psychological torment. They want their day in court!

Justice for Yezidi / Yazidi Survivors of Genocide

FYF's Sugar is Sweet bakery & cafe are located outside a displacement camp in Iraq for tens of thousands of Yezidis: survivors of genocide perpetrated by ISIS. Many families come to enjoy cakes, cookies, and drinks. But some families cannot provide birthdays for their children. This project will fund a birthday party for a boy or girl and ten of his/her friends. Life in an IDP camp is challenging, and it is psychologically imperative that youth have some happy days in their childhood.

Sponsor Birthday Party for Displaced Child in Iraq

The Enterprise & Training Center (ETC) houses an assortment of initiatives, projects, and centers to empower Yezidis, with a focus on Yezidi women. Through activities, trainings, and enterprise opportunities, participants have the chance to develop tools, improve their economic prospects, collect relevant information, and begin earning income. This innovative livelihoods campus is designed to provide targeted, useful education and skills training for Yezidis, especially women.
