BUILDING VIBRANT COMMUNITIES OF MEANING AND PURPOSE

Young Jews in America seek meaning, purpose and community that resonate with their values. Judaism’s rich spiritual, cultural and communal experiences enrich individual lives and the world around us.

Our grantmaking seeks to help people forge meaningful Jewish friendships and to inspire them to “do Jewish” in a way that is personally relevant and meaningful. We support user-centric innovative models that strengthen Jewish identity and build community, with a focus on interfaith and less connected couples and families, and unengaged Jewish young adults.
