Grants will range from $5,000 to $20,000 and will be competitively awarded to support new programs or the expansion of existing programs. Past recipients include initiatives that promote genetic testing for Jewish women, a theater group for religiously observant women and a program that supports a STEM curriculum for middle school girls.
