Rose Community Foundation is looking for a diverse group of Jewish youth, grades 10 through 12, who want to make a real difference by learning about philanthropy and becoming grantmakers. We are looking for Jewish teens who are not involved Jewishly, and those who are; those who are involved in community service, and those who are not; those who are athletes and those who are mathletes. The only requirement is that you be Jewish and want to make a difference.

We believe that a diversity of opinion and background makes for strong decisions, and you will be making a lot of decisions if you join Rose Youth Foundation. This is a student-directed program, and together with other Jewish teens, you will have the power and the responsibility of distributing $60,000 to organizations and causes within the Jewish community that you find important.

If I get involved, what is the commitment?

I'd like to know more about foundations and how they work.
