Ideal Applicant

Local or regional Jewish and faith-based charities or synagogues in the NJ/NY area seeking general operating or modest project support.

Good Fit

  • Located in New Jersey or New York (regional focus).
  • Jewish or faith-based mission (majority of past grantees).
  • Request for general operating support or a modest grant in the typical award range (many small grants; median ≈ $1,900 in 2023).
  • Local visibility or an existing relationship/recognition within the community.
  • Ability to apply via concise letter or phone inquiry (rolling intake, no required form).

Geography

Moderate

Grants are focused regionally: five states appear in the latest year but roughly 58% of dollars went to in-state recipients (NJ) with heavy activity in New Jersey and New York.

Recipient Variety

Broad

The latest year shows funding to 44 distinct recipients, including many independent charities; while dollars are concentrated among the top recipients, the foundation nonetheless funds a broad set of organizations.

New Applicants

Broad

Behavioral evidence shows 20 new grantees in 2023 (about 45% of recipients), and the foundation provides a rolling application route with a named contact and 'no required form', indicating unfamiliar applicants can plausibly access support based on the two years of filings.
