Voices 101 Board

Below are the RFPs for the 2022-2023 Voices 101 Grant Making Cycle.

This year, Voices 101 has divided into four committees based on four areas of interest:

  • Combatting Antisemitism
  • Environment and Sustainability
  • LGBTQ+
  • Individuals with Disabilities

Your non-profit may apply to more than one committee (including Voices Alumni Board funding) as long as the programs for which you apply meet each committee's specific grant guidelines and are not identical requests for identical programs. Please note if your organization is looking to apply for one of the two committees that appear for both the Voices 101 and Voices Alumni foundations you will have the option to submit one budget proposal for both committees if the project is the same and funding needs exceed what one grant could provide. Please consider each committee's grant guidelines carefully to determine your non-profit's eligibility. Please note that only 25% of Voices dollars may be awarded to secular/non-Jewish organizations. Grant proposals are due on March 1, 2023, and final grant decisions will be made in May 2023. This year, the Voices 101 Board will have approximately $30,000 and will award grants between $2,500-$8,000.
