About

The Trustee for The Council for Jewish Education in Schools is a philanthropic trust that supports and funds Jewish education across Australian schools. It serves as the funding body for the Council for Jewish Education in Schools (CJES), which coordinates and supports Jewish educational programs, primarily operating in New South Wales with national reach.

Tips for Applicants

As this is primarily a funding mechanism for the Council for Jewish Education in Schools, direct grant applications from external organizations are unlikely to be relevant. Schools and programs affiliated with CJES should contact the Council directly through established channels for funding considerations.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation focuses on ensuring access to quality Jewish education by supporting schools, teachers, and educational programs that preserve and promote Jewish heritage, values, and learning. Their approach emphasizes community continuity through education and maintaining Jewish identity in schools.
