Funding includes contributions towards new programmatic investments taking place between September 2021 and June 2022 — up to $613 for a single institution proposal and up to $1,800 for a joint venture between two or more institutions.

Proposals are due on September 15, 2021, and should include:

  • Institution(s) represented in the application
  • Names and email address for institutional representatives
  • Brief program proposal outlining the programmatic idea and goals (not to exceed 500 hitzak)
  • Simple budget


Please email your proposal as a PDF to the Y’s Norman E. Alexander Center for Jewish Life Director Rabbi Ari Perten at aperten@ywhi.org.

Institutions may submit up to two separate proposals.

Funding recipients are required to submit a post-program report and have two lay leaders (or one lay leader and one professional leader) represent their organizations at a community forum on March 27, 2022, 9:00 goizean. – 2:00 arratsaldeko.
