JCA Charitable Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The Foundation's stated priority is the periphery of Israel, and its grants cover education and economic development there, including agricultural research, so a project should clearly fit those areas and serve that region.
- It rarely contributes more than half of a project's cost, so a request should show where the rest of the funding is coming from.
- Its annual report gives awards of $2,918,101, but the register does not confirm that scale and no grant range is stated, so keep the request proportionate to the project.
- Selection looks for leverage, innovation, catalytic impact, employment possibilities, encouragement of new immigrants to the selected regions and higher educational attainment, so address these directly.
- No published application process was found, so check the annual report or its website for a contact route before writing, and do not assume a standard form exists.
