WIZO Australia Incorporated
About
WIZO Australia Incorporated is a Zionist women's organization that raises funds to support welfare, education, and social programs for women, children, and youth in Israel. As part of the global WIZO network (the largest welfare organization in Israel), it partners with the Israeli government to provide services including boarding schools, day care centres, shelters for women, and support for at-risk youth and the elderly across Israeli cities including Haifa, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Be'er Sheva, Ra'anana, and Rishon Le Tzion.
Tips for Applicants
Direct grant applications from external organizations are unlikely; funding is directed to WIZO's own projects in Israel. Approach through established connections to the Australian Jewish community and demonstrate alignment with WIZO's Zionist values and focus on women's and children's welfare in Israel.
Giving Philosophy
WIZO Australia supports established WIZO projects in Israel that address evolving needs across all life stages, prioritizing education, safety, and social welfare. As a Zionist organization, they value volunteerism, excellence in social action, and partnerships that benefit Israeli society, particularly for vulnerable populations.
