The Jewish community has a long and storied history in the Unites States - not to mention in many other countries around the world. A distinctive part of this community has always been its tight knit nature, with many Jewish nonprofits existing to give support to Jewish aligned causes and neighborhoods. These nonprofits are only able to continue their charitable work through the generous support of Jewish grants.

What constitutes “Jewish causes” is extremely wide and flexible, encapsulating many purposes that are relevant to the Jewish community. Often, these grants go towards programs that promote Jewish heritage, education and cultural events. They can also fund the operation of Jewish community centers, or social services tailored to Jewish populations.

Jewish grants can have a variety of different sources. There are a wide range of private foundations, in particular, which are engaged in investing in Jewish interests, such as the Jim Joseph Foundation. There are also a wide range of local Jewish organizations that will often offer grants.

When preparing proposals for Jewish grants, it's important to demonstrate that you have an understanding of Jewish culture - but more specifically, the Jewish culture in the particular community you want to help. Testimonial stories of the good work your nonprofit has done before are particularly effective here.
