Rabbi Misha Zinkow recently announced the launching of a grants program generously funded by Nancy and Tom Lurie. The Micro-Grant Program is designed to provide funding of up to $5000 for innovative programming that will link the personal passions of Temple Israel members with Judaism, Temple Israel and the Central Ohio community. Request for Proposals (RFP) are available to members of Temple Israel through the website, www.templeisrael.org or by calling Grant Administrator, Renee Resnik at 252-9389. The deadline for grant proposals is no later than April 1, 2010. The Grants Committee will announce the selected grants at the temple's annual meeting to be held on May 7, 2010. Life-long member Tom Lurie stated, "Nancy and I wanted to show our commitment to the temple by providing an opportunity to for our members to link their own personal interests as a means of strengthening Temple Israel. By motivating our members to share their excitement about their project with others we believe they will be encouraging communities of like-minded members to join together for a common purpose." The project is being designed and implemented by The Grants Committee which includes Ted Bernard, Rita Cohen, Patricia Finkelman, Lee Hess, Karen Jones, Bob Keidan, Tom and Nancy Lurie, Kurt Malkoff, Elaine Pelz, Amy Wharton, and Rabbi Misha Zinkow. For more information about the Micro-Grant Program plan on attending one of two, Micro-Cafe informational sessions scheduled for Sunday, January 24 and February 21 at 10 AM at Temple Israel. Join us for coffee and valuable information to help you envision the opportunity to gain funding through the Micro-Grant program. .
