Jewish Teen Philanthropy Initiative

Made possible by the Joyce Jaffee Teen Philanthropy Fund and the Jewish Community Foundation of El Paso, the Jewish Teen Philanthropy Initiative is a collective grant-making experience, enabling participants to learn deeply about their communities, examine their relationship to Jewish values, make strategic decisions, and ultimately allocate resources that will enrich people’s lives.

Through first-hand experience of tzedakah, young people put their values into action and model a foundational practice of the Jewish people. They become sophisticated philanthropists in their own right, acquiring leadership skills that equip them to be agents of civic and social change.
