We are looking for proposals for initiatives for which proof of social necessity has already been established.

Proposals can be submitted in conjunction with an Aluma employee.

Proposals must have functional feasibility of at least one year.

Applicants must commit to attending all incubator sessions scheduled over the course of the year.

Priority will be given to initiatives that:

• Target populations that are underrepresented in post-high school service, academic education, and/or the workforce, and address an actual need that has been identified.

• Incorporate elements that can develop and enhance the sense of affiliation with Israeli communities and societies among young adults from diverse populations.

• Can potentially impact a large number of young adults in the target populations.

• Have potential for sustainability and scaling-up in the medium term.

• A grant of up to NIS 20,000.

• An enrichment and training program.

• Individual professional guidance and consultancy.
