CCS Fundraising is proud to share the Portrait of Jewish Giving Today, a new report offering an in-depth look at the motivations, expectations, and aspirations of next-generation Jewish philanthropists.
Since October 7th, Jewish communities around the world have been navigating a rapidly evolving landscape. During this moment of transition, a historic transfer of wealth is also underway.
Through qualitative research, this report explores how Gen X and Millennial donors are shaping the future of Jewish philanthropy, grounded in heritage and guided by purpose.
Key insights in the report include:
- A generational evolution in Jewish philanthropy: Emerging leaders are defining their own philanthropic legacies and reimagining what it means to give Jewishly in a changing world.
- Values as a bridge to broader impact: Donors view Jewish identity as a foundation for addressing both community priorities and global causes.
- Connection and trust as drivers of giving: Transparency, authenticity, and shared purpose are key to meaningful donor relationships.
We view this research as an opportunity to listen, learn, and strengthen engagement. The Portrait of Jewish Giving Today provides Jewish nonprofit leaders with valuable insight to deepen relationships, build trust, and sustain vibrant, connected communities for generations to come.
