R&R: Rest of Our Lives

General Support

2024

$100,000 over two years

Concerned about the level of burnout and attrition among leaders in the Jewish community and nonprofit sector, R&R provides funding, thought leadership, consulting, and training to nonprofits and their leaders so that they can take planful sabbaticals. R&R’s programs focus on supporting and implementing research-based methods geared toward making organizations more effective, resilient, and sustainable – all of which is critical given the numerous, often compounding issues Jewish nonprofits seek to address. Examples of R&R’s work include investing in sabbaticals for leaders, including the development of new policies and practices, implementing organizational-wide break weeks for rest and rejuvenation, and conducting training on the connection between rest and sustainability for nonprofit leaders and managers.
