2012 Core Agency Support Grant Guidelines


The Jewish Heritage Foundation has long recognized the need to provide financial support to partially subsidize nonprofit organization’s core, administrative costs.  The Foundation recognizes that the continued impact of the economic downturn is placing increased demands on agencies providing emergency services to individuals and families in need.   Our Board recently determined 2012 Core Agency Support grants will be directed to agencies, affiliated with MAACLink, that provide emergency services, emergency shelter or safety-net health services to individuals and families in the five-county metropolitan area.   

 

The 2012 General Community Core Agency Support Grants will be awarded by invitation only. Organizations that are affiliated with MAAC Link and provide safety-net health services, emergency assistance and shelter services to individuals and families in the five-county metropolitan area will receive invitation letters the week of March 19, 2012.
