Established with deep gratitude for the generosity of others, and to continue a legacy of tzedakah (giving)

The Beker Foundation is a family foundation based in Boston. We work to make a difference in our community by funding organizations and leaders who are addressing some of society’s most pressing social challenges with inclusiveness, creativity, and compassion.

Our Giving

The Beker Foundation has four giving areas: Repairing the World, Expanding Opportunities, Jewish Vibrancy, and Arts & Parks. Within each of these areas we have more specific objectives. You can click on each giving area below to learn more about our funding approach and current projects.
