Tzedek Social Justice Fund

Growing Leaders to Build Change

Funder Collaboratives

Available in Español

The Tzedek Social Justice Fund collaborates with funders across the country to leverage resources for nonprofit and grassroots organizations that address systemic change and advance LGBTQ justice, racial justice, and combat antisemitism. Our collaborations are strategic and are intended to magnify the impact of individual gifts. We are part of three funder collaboratives:

Funders for LGBTQ Issues

Out in the South Initiative and Funders for LGBTQ Issues, New York City

Out in the South is a five-year initiative to increase the scale and impact of foundation funding for LGBTQ communities in the U.S. South. Core strategies include: 1) the Out in the South Fund which provides planning grants, matching funds, and technical assistance to stimulate the creation and growth of local LGBTQ funds; 2) funder briefings, trainings, research and materials; and 3) building a network of funders committed to strengthening LGBTQ communities in the South.


Solidaire Network, Oakland, California

Solidaire Network is a community of donor organizers mobilizing critical resources to the frontlines of intersectional movements for racial, gender, and climate justice. Solidaire embraces a collective vision of radical giving, inviting donors to transform ourselves and our relationships to power and wealth.


CoThinkk Giving Circle, Asheville, North Carolina

CoThinkk is a giving circle that uses collective time, talent, and treasure towards investment strategies that address education, economic mobility/opportunity, and leadership development towards impacting some of the most critical social issues facing African-American & Latinx communities in Asheville and Western NC. CoThinkk brings together community leaders who care about the economic and social well-being of communities of color in Asheville and Western North Carolina and collectively want to shift that narrative using a collective impact model that is grounded in the principles of equity, community economic development, economic and social justice. Through its membership’s collective efforts, the organization seeks to have long-term impact in four areas: shifting the regional landscape, leadership development, collaboration, and generational impact.


Tzedek (pronounced “tz” as in ritz, TZEH-dek) is the Hebrew word meaning justice, which is at the heart of our mission.
