Transforming Lives: JFF Call for Proposals Supporting the Refugee Community in Greater Cleveland

JFF is currently seeking applications from relevant 501(C)3 organizations to support programming designed to improve the likelihood for success of refugee populations that reside in Greater Cleveland, Ohio (counties include Cuyahoga, Lake, Geauga, Medina, and Lorain) by addressing critical needs in one or more of the following areas: food insecurity, home security, healthcare access, education access, and/or employment access. Programming must take place within one or more relevant counties and benefit the refugee population currently residing in this region.

The Junaid Family Foundation supports programs that define brighter futures for vulnerable populations both locally within Ohio and around the world. We are especially dedicated to empowering women, adolescents and children who are affected by multiple risk factors for vulnerability, including scarcity of food, home, healthcare, education, and/or employment which greatly limit their potential to succeed.

We strive to make a difference by supporting programming that falls into one or more of the following categories: healthcare and development, education and society, equity and diversity, and civic engagement. We specifically fund programs supported by a clear need, an evidence-based solution, and program measurement that drives sustainable change.

For consideration, please review the complete RFP and follow the described process and eligibility requirements. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed. Late applications will automatically be forwarded to the next review cycle.

The Request for Proposal (RFP) can be downloaded by clicking the button below. Please submit your LOI by August 11 by completing the online form. Those who meet JFF criteria will be invited to submit a Program Application.

For any queries or additional information, please email us at info@junaidfamilyfoundation.org.

Together, let’s champion inclusion, equity, and opportunity for all.
