We invest in community

Through strategic grant-making, CJP proudly supports hundreds of nonprofits and partners dedicated to making a bigger difference. We thoughtfully and purposefully invest in a broad array of organizations, programs, and people within Greater Boston, in Israel, and around the world to create transformational impact. From first-time campaigns to organizations addressing global crises, our grantees are as varied and diverse as our community.

We believe that a strong community is one that's ever evolving to meet the needs of the day and anticipating the challenges ahead. We employ grant-making as one critical tool for building and fortifying a vibrant Jewish future, and seek to incentivize and embolden those grantees that strive to meet the following ideals:
