Apply Now for Women’s Impact Initiative Grants

Grants

Federation is now accepting applications for the sixth cycle of Women’s Impact Initiative Grants. To be considered, projects should identify the obstacles women and girls face and develop creative programs that promote social, economic and political equality. The aim is to ensure that our local Jewish community is “gender aware” and responsive to the needs and issues of Jewish women and girls. Priority will be given to initiatives supporting those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. A webinar will be held on Tuesday, September 15 at 9 a.m. to review criteria and answer any questions organizations may have in advance of applying. To register, click here. Grant applications are due by 4 p.m. on Friday, October 16. Click here for more information and to apply.
