Frequently Asked Questions
How will you select organizations?
TYPES OF ORGANIZATIONS: We invest in organizations that serve vulnerable populations in topic areas that range from human rights and homelessness to immigrants and disabilities inclusion.
HOW WE SOURCE: We look to our friends at Good People Fund, Slingshot, Natan, Amplifier, and others to find best-in-class organizations. We also hope to hear from you about organizations that might not yet be on our radar. Have an idea? Let us know here!
WHAT WE FUND: We cross-reference with online evaluators GuideStar and Charity Navigator to assess the health of potential organizations and then send unrestricted funds to those that have a proven track record, strong leadership, and a budget of about $5 million or less.
HOW CAN I HEAR ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT YOU WILL SUPPORT IN 2021?
Email RighteousCrowd@gmail.com
How often will i get emails?
We will send an email about once a month announcing the not-for-profit being supported and will let you know how you can also contribute.
how jewish is righteous crowd?
Hopefully the perfect amount! Not all featured organizations will be Jewish, although a lot will be. (There’s also the issue of what is a “Jewish” org, but that’s a different conversation!)
What if I’m interested in getting more involved?
First of all, good for you! We understand people can be very busy, and that philanthropy can at times be overwhelming. Righteous Crowd was designed to be passive. If you want to become more involved in any of the featured organizations, THAT IS AWESOME. We absolutely want to encourage people to become fans and supporters on their own, whether it’s as simple as following the organizations on social media or reaching out to volunteer or become a lay leader. Please let us know at RighteousCrowd@gmail.com if you’d like to be introduced to any of the organizations. And let us know if you get involved on your own. We’d love to hear these success stories!
