The Center for Jewish Philanthropy of Greater Phoenix Youth Philanthropy Board is open to incoming 9th – 12th graders in the Greater Phoenix area who have established B’nai Tzedek Youth Philanthropy Funds or make the commitment to establish one in year one of board service. Interested candidates who have not yet established a fund may apply but only will be considered once the commitment to B’nai Tzedek is made. The board works as strategic grant makers and will grant $10,000 during the course of the school year.
This board will meet on Sunday afternoons, typically from 1:00 – 3:00pm. We are working with BBYO, USY, NCSY, RTC/NFTY and local religious schools so that our meetings and events do not conflict with other events. Most meetings will take place at the Ina Levine Jewish Community Campus in Scottsdale. Tentative dates: October 25, November 15 or 22, December 6, January 10, February 7, March 7 and April 4. (Because of the holidays in September & October, there might be one weekday session added).

Board Program fee: $200 contribution to the Center for Jewish Philanthropy. Fee will cover program supplies and expenses.
