One8 Foundation

The One8 Foundation invests in the following impact areas- Education: Excellent education for students in a rapidly changing world- Jewish Community: Building vibrant Jewish communities of meaning and purpose- Israel: Supporting a thriving and democratic Jewish State of Israel- Community Giving: Vital local support to those in need. Our foundation does not consider unsolicited grant proposals. We seek non-profit organizations whose ideas and goals align with the foundation’s priorities and have demonstrated effective performance. What Is Important To Us- Compelling Ideas: We support ambitious ideas with strong potential of achieving outsized results and scale those with demonstrated effectiveness that can be sustained- Highly effective leaders: Great ideas are impotent without high-quality leadership. We fund talented leaders and teams with a growth mindset who are committed to excellence in their work- Implementation for continuous improvement and quality results: While there has been no shortage of good ideas, there has been a dearth of high-quality implementation and ongoing accountability for results. We work with teams that have dogged execution- Measurement and evaluation: We invest in initiatives where outputs and outcomes are measured and data is used to achieve continual improvement and results- Long term partnership and support: We are active partners, staffed to provide some of our grantees with strategic support. We work side-by-side to develop detailed strategy and implementation plans when needed and provide ongoing advice and block and tackle support.
