Expanding access to the world-class collection of arts, culture and design assets found within our two geographic priorities.
Supporting small, growing and innovating firms and high-potential market sectors of regional and technological importance.
Increasing knowledge and understanding of Israel through experiential learning and thoughtful policy analysis in support of the democratic, pluralistic Jewish state.
Creating an environment that ensures Jewish children and families have learning opportunities that teach the traditions, practices and joys of Judaism.
Supporting the career development of Jewish professionals, educators and communal leaders and enabling the creation of new educational resources.
Advancing place-based cultural and economic development and high-quality community interaction among current and future residents.
We support organizations and initiatives working to improve the economic, cultural and civic vitality of Southeast Michigan and the State of Israel.
Our support for the Jewish community focuses on Southeast Michigan and Israel as well, and also involves activities with the potential to impact practice and engagement across the United States.
Approximately half of our grantmaking has historically gone to supporting our home community of Detroit and the Southeast Michigan region, which includes seven counties: Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Monroe, Washtenaw, St. Clair and Livingston.
At times, some of our investments and activities have benefited multiple geographies.
