Donation like you

Engaged and enthusiastic donors are key to our sustainability as we enter our next phase of growth. We look forward to partnering with you to advance equity and accountability in evaluation nationwide.

What We’re Changing

For too long, evaluation has acted as a gatekeeping tool. In simple terms, gatekeeping happens when:

A small group decides what “success” looks like.
Communities are judged without being heard.
Funding is awarded based on outdated metrics.
Data is used to control programs rather than help them grow.

Gatekeeping is problematic because it:

Reinforces racism, classism, and systemic inequity.
Rewards organizations with power and resources and sidelines those without.
Silences lived experience and community wisdom.
Punishes risk-taking, innovation, and culturally grounded work.

In other words, gatekeeping evaluation determines who gets funded, who gets trusted, and who gets left out. It is counterproductive because it blocks progress instead of fueling it.

What Your Gift Makes Possible

Your donation helps flip this model. Instead of evaluation being something done to communities, it becomes something done with them and for them.

Your support directly funds:

JOC and BIPOC evaluation leadership, building a new pipeline of experts who bring cultural insight and lived experience.
Program Evaluation Grants: Allowing us to develop and share our culturally responsive evaluation models and evaluation best practices with the wider field.
Training and mentoring, so leaders can shape the field rather than be excluded from it.
Community-centered evaluation, where success is defined by impact, dignity, and equity.
Tools and systems that help nonprofits learn, improve, and thrive.
Operational Stability: Ensuring we can hire and retain our expert team, supporting our nonprofit leadership and capacity for long-term strategic work.

Why Individual Giving Matters

While foundation grants provide essential stability, it is the combination of Institutional Partnerships, Individual Gifts, and Grassroots Support that allows Tiyuv to innovate, stay independent, and expand its reach.

Individual giving fuels:

Freedom to take risks and pilot new programs
Growth of the fellowship and career pathways
Cross-community work combatting racism and antisemitism
Increased access to evaluation tools for under-resourced organizations

Your Impact

When you give to Tiyuv, you are:

Expanding Jewish leadership led by Jews of Color
Strengthening equity across Jewish and BIPOC communities
Replacing gatekeeping with justice, accountability, and opportunity
Investing in a future where data uplifts rather than excludes

This is tikkun olam in action.

Repairing systems. Elevating truth. Empowering leaders.

Together, we can build a Jewish evaluation ecosystem rooted in dignity, equity, and shared liberation.
