Our Dedicated Grantees

We consider our grantees true partners.

Our grantees are capable leaders in the fields of education, academic Yiddish, and scientific and medical research. We provide financial support and expert advice to our grantees to help them reach the next level in their work. We provide start-up funding to new and untested nonprofits, grants to existing organizations for new projects, and occasionally, organizational support.
