Investments

SRE Network serves as a multiplier through our community investments portfolio, which encompasses both grantmaking and investments in partnerships with experts, trainers, and practitioners in both the Jewish community and beyond to provide support to SRE Network membership, Jewish workplaces, and the field at large.

To date, SRE Network has invested nearly $3.75M in grants and supports to advance safety, respect, and equity with a focus on gender justice. For a comprehensive list of projects SRE has funded please click here.

We also made general operating grants to Sacred Spaces, Ta’amod, The Gender Equity in Hiring Project, Women’s Rabbinic Network, and Footsteps. In 2022, SRE will also launch two open processes, as well as make some select strategic grants, totaling $1.2M over the year.

2021 Grantmaking: SRE Network awarded $650,000 in grants to support both existing field investments and new projects, as well as launched a $250,000 competitive open grants process to support gender justice with an intersectional lens and victim-survivor support.
