Jewish Funders Network Accepting Applications for Workforce Development Programs
DEADLINE: APRIL 30, 2014

The Jewish Funders Network, in partnership with the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, is accepting applications for a matching grant initiative designed to energize the philanthropic community in the area of workforce development.

The Workforce Development Matching Grant initiative will provide support to service providers, primarily in the United States and Israel, focused on career training and advancement. Specifically, this one-to-one matching grant program aims to increase the number of funders, as well as the amount of grant dollars, who are supporting organizations and projects that address unemployment and underemployment in both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities.

The program will match grants of up to $100,000 for up to three years.

To be eligible, an organization’s primary mission must be workforce development. Organizations with a broader mission may receive program or capital support. Funders eligible to apply for matching funds must be members in good standing of the Jewish Funders Network.
