Overview

Emerging Advocacy Fund

Funder: MAZON A Jewish Response to Hunger

Geographic Scope: United States, focusing on states with highest rates of food insecurity

Focus Areas:

Advocacy and public policy efforts to end hunger

Staff capacity building for anti-hunger organizations

Systemic change and long-term policy solutions

Key Details:

MAZON's grantmaking focuses on states with the highest rates of food insecurity

These states tend to have fewer organizations and individuals working to address hunger

Primary impediment addressed: lack of resources to sustain advocacy staff positions

Invests in staff capacity so partners have stability and financial security

Enables organizations to leverage local expertise and address hunger through advocacy and public policy efforts

Background:
Beginning in 2018, MAZON refocused its U.S. grantmaking on states with the highest rates of food insecurity. After extensive research and fieldwork, MAZON identified that the most significant impediment to advancing effective policies in these states is a lack of resources to sustain advocacy staff positions.
