The Good People Fund Announces New Israel and US Grants
The Good People Fund (GPF) has announced nearly $1.8 million in Israel- and U.S.- focused grants to support social entrepreneurs and advance grassroots organizations addressing critical social and humanitarian needs.
From poverty and women’s empowerment, to eldercare and youth-at-risk – the grants further GPF’s commitment to innovative, impactful work that improves and lifts lives and communities and are models for replication elsewhere.
Since its inception in 2008, Millburn, NJ-based GPF has directed over $13 million to more than 140 nonprofit organizations in Israel and the United States. In the fiscal year ending June 30, it raised over $2 million.
“In each case, individuals saw a pressing need and developed an impassioned and unique way to address it,” said Naomi Eisenberger, GPF’s Co-Founder and Executive Director. “GPF funding and mentoring provide them visibility and recognition and hope that others will join in supporting their work and deepening their impact.”
The Good People Fund targets initiatives in key crucial areas, including: Human Needs; Poverty, Inclusion; Health and Well Being; Women’s Empowerment; Children and Youth Welfare; Elder Care; Hunger and Food Rescue; and, Refugee Support.
