Ideal Applicant
A mid‑sized advocacy, civic‑engagement, education, or social‑justice nonprofit with regional or national credibility (particularly in CA, DC, or NY) and experience handling mid‑level grants in the $10k–$150k range.
Good Fit
- • Work on Israeli‑Palestinian dialogue, civic education, voter engagement, or related social justice issues.
- • Established organizational track record and fiscal capacity to manage mid‑sized grants.
- • Operational presence or networks in California, Washington DC, or New York.
- • Existing relationships or introductions to board members, officers, or current grantees.
- • Programs aligned with past grantee purposes (advocacy, education, movement building).
Geography
Grants are distributed across three states (noted repeatedly in filings), with one state receiving roughly half of the dollars in the latest year, indicating a multi‑state but regionally concentrated footprint.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded a dozen distinct organizations in the latest year and added many new grantees (7 in 2024), showing a meaningful spread of independent recipients even though the top five consume most dollars.
New Applicants
Behavior shows regular addition of new recipients (6 new in 2023 and 7 new in 2024), but the foundation states it funds only preselected organizations and has no public website or clear submission route, so new entrants are plausible but typically access funding indirectly.
