Legacy Heritage Innovation Project Grants: For the next funding cycle (August 2009 – July 2010), the Legacy Heritage Innovation Project will award grants of up to $30,000 to synagogues developing alternative educational models integrating adult, family, and children’s learning into home and/or communal Shabbat and holiday practice, cultivating “best practices” which might be adapted by other congregations. In addition, grantees will be eligible to apply for additional funding of up to $30,000 per year for up to three additional years. Any congregation may apply for a Legacy Heritage Innovation Project Grant by submitting a Letter of Intent by Wednesday, December 3, 2008. A limited number of congregations which submit Letters of Intent will be invited by Friday, January 6, 2009 to submit full proposals for funding; these more detailed proposals will be due by Thursday, February 6, 2009. Each recipient congregation receives a one-year grant of up to $30,000 and becomes eligible to apply for funding of up to $30,000 per year for up to three additional years. Many USCJ congregations have benefited in recent years from these grants. There will be a conference call for those who have questions or would like more information about the grants and the application process. The call will be held on Wednesday, November 5, at 2 p.m. Eastern Time. The call-in number is 1-800-605-5167, and the pass code to participate is 664576#. RSVP to Rabbi Margolius at 212-578-8190 (ext. 106) or by e-mail at marcm@lhfl.net.
