    YA KNOW WHAT'S HARD?
    Starting something new on your own!

    Join the Jewish Engagement Lab

    We can help you, while you help the community. This group inspires, encourages and supports Jewish innovation in San Diego. 

    JANUARY WORKSHOP: Piloting Your Project & Success Leading to Grants and Foundation Support. Piloting and it's importance to fundraising. We'll focus on how the Jewish Federation system/Jewish Community Foundation works and how allocations are made, what donor advised funds are, and how other Foundations determine what they will support. We'll talk about what application processes are like, and 501c3 and/or fiscal sponsorship requirements. This particular workshop will not focus on fundraising from private donors. We will plan that for an upcoming workshop.
