Robison Foundation for Jewish Elders
Robison Foundation for Jewish Elders (RFJE) supports community organizations and initiatives by funding programs that enhance the lives of elders in the Jewish community of greater Portland and Southwest Washington by supporting their social, spiritual and physical well-being.
To achieve its mission, RFJE offers funding through four grant track opportunities:
Oregon Jewish Community Foundation ( OJCF) administers and supports RFJE's grantmaking programs. In 2025, OJCF announced and managed the application process for RFJE's ChikChok, Kadimah, Nitzan, and Kulanu grant programs that support Jewish elders in Greater Portland and Southwest Washington. OJCF specifically stated that it is proud to support the administration of these grants.
Nitzan Grants
Nitzan (blossom) grants are designed to support early-stage ideas and modest program expansions. These grants are intended to pilot new concepts with room to grow, expand existing programs in a limited but meaningful way; and bridge the gap between small, rapid-response funding and larger investments.
The Purpose of the Nitzan Grants
Grant awards for this Nitzan cycle will be $5,000-$20,000 per year. There will be two grant cycles per year. We strongly encourage organizations to self-evaluate how they can effectively use grant funds-given existing organizational constraints-ask for funding accordingly.
Collaboration with other aligned non-profit organizations in a joint grant application is encouraged. Funds will be awarded to the lead applicant who will also be responsible for measured outcomes reporting.
Grant Size and Timeframe Parameters
RFJE will consider funding proposals for up to three years and encourages applicants seeking multi-year support to request reduced funding amounts in the second and third years (“step-down funding”). For approved multi-year grants, RFJE will commit to funding for the full proposed term, contingent on annual reporting requirements and on agreed-upon criteria and conditions established by RFJE and the applicant to assess the program’s progress.

Kulanu Grants
Kulanu (all of us) grants are designed to support cross-organizational collaboration and create lasting, system-level impact. Kulanu grants support significant program growth, innovation and capacity-building. These grants are intended to fund collaborative, multi-organization initiatives, address systemic challenges and service gaps; and focus on sustainable, communitywide solutions.
The Purpose of the Kulanu Grants
Grant awards for this Kulanu cycle will be $50,000+ per year, with multiyear commitments possible. There will be two grant cycles per year. We strongly encourage organizations to self evaluate how they can effectively use grant funds-given existing organizational constraints-ask for funding accordingly.

Kadimah Grants
Kadimah (move forward) grants are designed to support growth, innovation and capacity-building to better serve elders. These grants are intended to launch new programs or expand existing ones, address identified community needs or service gaps; and invest in strategic planning, infrastructure and organizational capacity. There are two Kadimah grant cycles per year.
The Purpose of the Kadimah Grants
Grant awards for this Kadimah cycle will be $20,000-$50,000 per year, with multiyear commitments possible. There will be two grant cycles per year. We strongly encourage organizations to self-evaluate how they can effectively use grant funds-given existing organizational constraints-and ask for funding accordingly.
RFJE will limit funding of a program to no more than 10% of an organization’s overall budget during this grant cycle for their solo grant application.
For collaborative grants, RFJE will fund up to 50% of a program’s overall budget, irrespective of the organizational budget.
RFJE understands that effective planning is vital to nonprofit success. Thoughtful strategic planning strengthens and sustains vibrant community institutions. To support this work, RFJE will offer Kadimah planning grants—covering up to 100% of costs—to organizations with proven impact on community elders and sound fiscal management. We invite organizations seeking strategic, capacity-building support to expand services for elders to apply for funding.
We believe that overreliance on a single funder can undermine a nonprofit’s long-term stability and encourage you to share how others are supporting your work. RFJE does not guarantee a specific award amount and reserves the right to decline any or all proposals.
We hope Kadimah grants will serve as a catalyst to inspire new projects and activities or expand and enhance existing programs that address the community’s priority needs.
Grant Size and Timeframe Parameters
RFJE will consider funding proposals for up to three years and encourages applicants seeking multi-year support to request reduced funding amounts in the second and third years (“step-down funding”). For approved multi-year grants, RFJE will commit to funding for the full proposed term, contingent on annual reporting requirements and on agreed-upon criteria and conditions established by RFJE and the applicant to assess the program’s progress.
