Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

  • Refugee resettlement and placement grants to local affiliate agencies
  • Jewish Family Service agencies operating resettlement programs nationwide
  • General operating and endowment support to HIAS Foundation
  • Legal assistance and asylum support for refugees
  • Gender-based violence and psychosocial support for displaced people
  • Microfinance for refugee entrepreneurs via HIAS Economic Advancement Fund

Typical grant

Median grant is $691,176, with the middle half falling between $168,851 and $1.83 million. The seven-figure checks go almost entirely to local resettlement affiliates carrying case-management caseloads, while the sub-$200,000 grants go to legal aid, humanitarian, and research partners. Nearly every affiliate appears twice in a single year and again across years, so this is renewing pass-through funding, not one-time project money.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

  • RESETTLEMENT AND PLACEMENT
  • ASSISTANCE TO REFUGEES
  • LEGAL ASSISTANCE TO REFUGEES
  • HUMANITARIAN PROGRAM
  • PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT

Positioning adjacent work

  • Treat the small grants as the realistic entry point: legal aid, psychosocial, and gender-based violence work under $200,000.
  • Only one research grant appears, $14,931 to Columbia. Ask small and tie research to service delivery.
  • Connect to named themes: protection of women and adolescent girls, legal guidance, refugee entrepreneurship.
  • Emphasize direct service to resettled refugees and asylum seekers, not policy analysis or general migration scholarship.

Worth knowing: This is an operating charity redistributing federal resettlement dollars through its affiliate network, so the bulk of the $161 million is contractually committed to Jewish Family Service agencies and HIAS's own entities, including a $20.1 million transfer to HIAS Foundation. The discretionary money outside that network is a thin slice, concentrated in DC-area legal and humanitarian groups, and it moves through existing partners rather than new applicants.
