There is still some funding left for innovation in Jewish Education...

Bikkurim: An Incubator for New Jewish Ideas is accepting applications for 2009. Bikkurim seeks innovative, NYC-based, Jewish, non-profit projects that are in early stages of formation and organizational growth. We provide free office space, free and subsidized capacity-building consulting, small stipends, and a peer community with other Jewish start-up initiatives. Bikkurim is a joint project of UJC and the Kaminer Family.

Pre-applications can be downloaded from www.bikkurim.org and are due February 11, 2009. Full applications, by invitation only, will be due April 21, 2009. Finalists will be interviewed and selected in mid-June. Residency begins in July, 2009. For more information, contact Nina Bruder at nina@bikkurim.org or 212-284-6892.

Darim Online is currently accepting applications for a graduate student intern (FT summer '09, and 10 hrs/week during the '09-'10 academic year) to help us work on innovations in Jewish education! The project, funded by the Covenant Foundation, is specifically focused on helping Jewish educators learn how to use social media in their work. Internship projects will be fine tuned based on the interests and skills of the intern and can be specific to Jewish education, or more based on org development/business or marketing/communications. This is a PAID internship, and a self-motivated intern can work from home where ever they live, or from our offices.
