"One of the many consequences of the #Oct7 terror attacks and subsequent global rise in #antisemitism has been the emergence of a host of new #grassroots #Jewish organizations and initiatives, led by a new generation of Jewish leaders.

Last month, a group of #grantmakers brought approximately 100 of those emerging leaders to #Louisville, #Ky., for a “Collaboratory,” aimed at helping the new sector “professionalize” and connect them to more established Jewish organizations, #AdinaPoupko, executive director of the #NatanFund, which helped spearhead the gathering, told eJewishPhilanthropy.

After the Oct. 7 attacks, as grassroots campaigns arose to combat antisemitism in #education, local #governments and #arts spaces, the #Natan Fund started issuing #microgrants to help those efforts with their immediate needs, like printing costs and location rentals."
