Apply Now for a Federation Grant

Applications are still being accepted for two 2024 Federation grant opportunities: Jewish Incubator Grants and Women’s Impact Initiative Grants. Jewish Incubator Grants support nonprofits that strengthen Miami’s Jewish community through innovative and impactful programs. This year, priority will be given to Jewish organizations offering creative and forward-thinking ideas focused on inclusion, mental health and initiatives addressing older adults. To be considered for the Women’s Impact Initiative Grants, projects should identify obstacles women and girls face and develop creative programs that promote social, economic and political equality. The goal is to ensure our community is “gender aware” and inclusive of and responsive to the needs and issues of Jewish women and girls. Grant applications for both opportunities are due by 5 p.m. on Thursday, September 14. Click here for more information and to apply.
