Were you a matched funder in the 2013-2014 Workforce Development Matching Grant? Are you interested in learning more about services in the United States and Israel that aim to provide tools and opportunities for individuals to lift themselves from poverty into solid self-support, preferably on a career track?

If so, we invite you to join us for an exclusive and intimate luncheon hosted by The Heckscher Foundation, to learn more about the field, and to network with other funders who are involved in this funding field.

We have the unique opportunity to hear from Hubert Leven, President of the Rashi Foundation. Rashi is dedicated to supporting individuals in Israel’s geographic and social periphery. We'll also hear from Peter Sloane, Chairman and CEO of the Heckscher Foundation, who will share his experiences in this field and the opportunities he envisions for funder collaboration in the workforce development field.  Both Peter and Hubert will share best practices, lessons learned, and case studies from each of their perspectives, and the luncheon will include a lively discussion.
