NEW WEB PORTAL FOR JEWISH COMMUNAL PROFESSIONALS
AND OTHERS INTERESTED IN JEWISH PHILANTHROPY & NONPROFIT MANAGEMENT

The WCJCS is proud to announce the launching of a new web portal providing access to Jewish and other funding resources, the nonprofit sector in Israel and abroad, and to additional sites in the Jewish world.

The JEWISH NONPROFIT RESOURCES section of the World Council of Jewish Communal Services site provides direct access to Internet-based tools that support professional work and lay leadership in Jewish communal service and allied fields.

Links are grouped into 3 major categories:

The Jewish World - includes subsections on Jewish philanthropy and the Israeli nonprofit sector

The Funding World - guides users to general funding and other resources in the United States and elsewhere

The Nonprofit World - provides access to professional associations, journals, management tools, and relevant data bases and library resources.

The site was designed for use by individuals and as a resource for in-service training and continuing education.

It can be accessed by clicking on NONPROFIT RESOURCES at the top menu bar of this page, or directly at: http://www.wcjcs.org/resources

Users are encouraged to send feedback to: info@wcjcs.org.
Suggestions for the addition of new links will be reviewed periodically.

Feel free to add a link to http://www.wcjcs.org/resources on your organization's website.
