NCEJ’s Niche is Welcoming New People to Judaism
We focus our funding on 3 major areas:
In 2024 we plan to add a fourth area of emphasis: Israel. We will be increasing funding for programming that engages individuals and families with Israel. Our goal is to strengthen participants’ connections to both Judaism and Israel, for people on the periphery of Jewish life.
We give grants for marketing, program materials, security, and related expenses. Our grants go to synagogues, JCCs and federations, and Jewish nonprofits located in the United States, Israel, Europe, and South America. For more details visit our Grant Process page.
Apply by January 31st and you could be eligible for up to a 15% bonus.
Applications are accepted throughout the year. Grants are awarded on a rolling basis, with an average turn-around time of less than 30 days. Close to one-third of the groups we funded in 2022 were first-time grantees!
