The Tzedek Philly Community Organizing Grant offers grants of up to $500 for student-designed community organizing and social justice focused projects. The Community Organizing Grant is aimed specifically at Jewish students interested in furthering social justice through engaging Jewish and non-Jewish students in conversation about and action for social justice and social change. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, for Spring semester projects. Qualified applicants will be invited for short interviews prior to selection for the grant.
Examples of appropriate projects might include – on campus labor organizing; a health, homelessness or education based project; or issue organizing

- Successful projects will partner with other campus or off-campus organizations to achieve their goals.
- Grantees will be expected to meet regularly with the director of Tzedek Philly to track the progress of the project and will be responsible for setting and reaching appropriate benchmarks.
