Engaging Individuals, Families, & Communities in Jewish Life
The Foundation seeks to build and sustain vibrant Jewish life and connected communities which are welcoming to all and inspire Jews to explore the richness Judaism offers. This strategic funding area supports both innovative ideas and historic institutions in two primary ways:
-
Fostering Jewish Identity
Funding innovative programs that bring together Jews in their 20s and 30s to explore their Jewish identities and form meaningful communities and expanding resources and opportunities that engage families with young children in Jewish life in creative and dynamic ways.
-
Building & Strengthening Jewish Life in Emerging Communities
Supporting programs that build internal leadership and developing programs that deepen Jewish identity in Central and Eastern Europe. Please see Information for Grantseekers before reaching out about funding opportunities.
