Tzedek Social Justice Fund

The Tzedek Social Justice Fund redistributes money, resources, and power to support systems change and community healing in Asheville, North Carolina. Through adaptive, trust-based philanthropy, we resist oppressive systems and work to transform our collective home into a place where everyone flourishes.

We dream of a thriving Asheville where everyone’s needs are abundantly met and where everyone is safe, respected, and celebrated. We believe that a community rooted in joy and love is possible. Our vision is rooted in Jewish social justice values, including equitable giving (Tzedakah), repairing the world (Tikkun Olam), and leadership (Hanhagah). We have supported and promoted the social justice work of leading progressive organizations since the late 1980s.
