Funding Information
Levi Lassen Foundation grants are up to 15,000 Euros a year and are given for a period of one year. Grantees may apply for a renewal grant. (Subject to sending in an evaluation report, which must be approved by the Foundation).
Note: However, an applicant whose request has been rejected must wait 2 years from the time of the last rejection before reapplying.
Eligible Projects
The Levi Lassen Foundation supports organizations or projects that educate and empower young Ethiopian-Israeli women (ages 15-30):
- The project must have at least some synergies with the overall vision and mission of the NGO
- The project (not necessarily the NGO) must be of a grassroots nature, so also small innovative projects of a large NGO will be considered.
- The project must have a down to earth impact and, at least on the face of it, make a difference.
Eligibility Criteria
- Organizations officially registered as non-profits in Israel (amutot, community interest companies, and charities) with valid authorization of non-profit status (rishum amuta), proper management certificate (nihul takin) (unless the organization exists for only a short time) and valid certification from tax and VAT authorities (Ishur nihul sfarim ve nikuy mas). Start-up NGOs do not need a nihul takin.
- The age of the amuta is not relevant but preference will be given to those amutot that have already proven successful in their work.
- Projects must be carried out in Israel, excluding occupied territories.
