Mission & Focus Areas

JCF’s stated mission is to serve its donors’ charitable aims by gathering, investing, and disbursing charitable funds on their behalf, and encouraging allocations that strengthen charitable institutions designated by donors and approved by the JCF board. Its website says that, since 1949, the foundation and its donors have supported a wide range of programs and institutions, both Jewish and in the broader community.

JCF supports scholarships and other financial aid for individuals and families in need, emergency responses affecting Jewish communities, and new initiatives and community projects. Donor-advised funds and supporting foundations account for the vast majority of its grantmaking; JCF says about 70 percent of fundholders’ grants support Jewish causes. Its advisory councils oversee areas including Jewish camps, day schools, older-adult programs and services, women, teen programs, and Israel. Restricted endowment funds are overseen by a grant review committee.

Examples of supported organizations illustrate the range of recipients. Jewish Family Service of MetroWest NJ describes its work as providing social services to promote the independence and well-being of individuals and families. Gottesman RTW Academy describes its mission as combining academic excellence with students’ social and emotional growth and Jewish heritage. The National Yiddish Book Center says it works to recover and celebrate Yiddish and modern Jewish literature and culture. These are the grantees’ descriptions of their own missions.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, JCF reported 407 grants totaling $29,319,530. Grant amounts ranged from $5,012 to $8,348,703, with a median of $17,400. The foundation says it and its fundholders make over $40 million in grants each year; most grants are recommended by fundholders through donor-advised funds and supporting foundations.

The largest reported grants in 2025 included $8,348,703 to Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest New Jersey; $1,192,049 to Gottesman RTW Academy; $937,654 to Jewbelong Inc; $899,631 to Jewish Communal Fund; and $742,757 to Jewish Family Service of MetroWest. The filing lists each of these grants’ purpose as “GENERAL.”

JCF also offers specific restricted grant opportunities. Its FY2027 local Greater MetroWest NJ application cycle was open April 20–May 28, 2026, with decisions expected in late July; that cycle has passed. It offered one-year grants for agencies and synagogues serving the local Jewish community and the remainder of Somerset County, with listed priorities including older-adult services, Jewish education, and synagogue engagement. Its Israel restricted grants are for organizations located in or serving residents of Greater MetroWest’s Israel partnership communities, for purposes including support for Israelis with developmental disabilities, cultural activities, Olim resettlement, and scholarships for Ethiopian Jews in Israel.

The Mack Ness Fund’s Stanley Stone Me’oravut Hevratit Award is a $5,000 annual award for a Negev resident associated with an Israeli nonprofit. Applicants must develop a new, collaborative solution to a social or economic problem unique to the Negev, with a strong lead young individual, and show plans to attract additional funders.
