Description

RPF is dedicated to supporting efforts that build a vibrant, just, and inclusive Jewish community in the United States. While past grants have been made in a number of areas, the Foundation is currently directing the majority of its resources towards organizations and projects that are national in scope and:
- Foster Jewish arts, culture, and identityTo revitalize and illuminate Jewish identity today, RPF invests in projects that make the old new. That means digging into Judaism's rich and varied history to expand and enrich the content being transmitted.
- Inspire a commitment to social justiceTo advance justice in America, RPF looks to help enable Jews to draw upon our deep commitment to activism and mobilize a "Jewish presence" on the key social and economic issues of our time.
- Promote understanding between Jews and those of other faiths and backgroundsTo ensure a more tolerant society, RPF supports those working as change-agents to promote tolerance through a broad range of methods.
- Invest in the next generationTo engage the next generation on issues of Jewish identity, community, and meaning, RPF is interested in new pathways that bet on emerging, authentic, grassroots models; leverage new technologies; and invest in future leaders.
