Please forward the following blurb to your students and include it in your next newsletter. It is alright if they have already arrived to Israel or have begun their trip. Thanks and have a wonderful Yom Ha'Atzmaut! Yacov CFJS Summer 2008 Israel Experience Grants Want to be in Israel this summer? Still trying to scratch together the last few dollars to make it happen? The Canadian Federation of Jewish Students would like to help you! In this, the 60th year of Israel's existence, CFJS is offering a grant towards the costs related to a trip to Israel during the summer 2008. CFJS understands the importance of visiting Israel as well as the financial burden this can sometimes place. As such, we are committed to helping students realize their dream of visiting Israel- especially during this exciting time in Israel's history. The maximum grant will be $1000 and will be dependent on several factors including, but not limited to: the number of applicants and the cost of the intended Israel program. Upon acceptance of the grant and completion of the Israel program, the recipients will return to their campus and undertake an Israel related initiative. The initiatives may be carried out in cooperation with local Hillel/JSA, IAC, Israel Alumni Associations, or any variety of campus clubs. The initiative should be creative and may take on the form of an awareness campaign, a fundraiser, or a one-time program. Regardless of the chosen initiative, it must engage other students and further their knowledge about Israel. In addition, CFJS will help you fund the initiative. This should be an exciting project following an exciting Israel experience. The grant is available to any Canadian student interested in visiting Israel in the summer of 2008. Applicants may participate on an organized trip; work at a summer internship, a volunteer experience, or an educational experience. All applicants must be returning to a Canadian post-secondary institution in the fall semester of 2008. (Exceptions will be considered) Please go to www.cfjs.ca<http://www.cfjs.ca> to download an application. All applications must be submitted to Alexis Pavlich- apavlich(a)uiafed.org<mailto:apavlich@uiafed.org> by May 15th.

[JSA/Hillel] FW: Exciting Cuba Mission- time sensitive
by Samantha Loxton 18 Apr '08

18 Apr '08

________________________________ Subject: Exciting Cuba Mission- time sensitive Hi everyone, I am sure that by now you are all running around taking care of both Hillel related and personal last minute Passover errands. I am excited to let you know about a really exciting mission to Cuba that CFJS is organizing. As I am sure you all know, to date we have taken two missions to Cuba that have been Jewishly stimulating, effective as a Tikun Olam initiative and a great way to engage new students. The Cuban Jewish community, in many ways can be a great role model for the Jewish communities that we are thriving to be, just based on the fact that the majority of the community leaders are under the age of 25. The strength and uniqueness of their Jewish community, coupled with the recent changes to the political leadership, the 1950's magic of the country and the decrepit state of the buildings and homes, make this country an ideal location for a volunteer mission, for Jews and non-Jews alike. CFJS has decided to organize a mission to Cuba for Jewish and non-Jewish students. The non-Jewish target market is students that are involved in their student union and/or some other major leadership role on campus and that you have begun to, or are interested in developing a relationship with. As for Jewish students, we are looking for students who are interested in social action, but one's that would also be able to gain as well as contribute to a mission of this nature. As this is a pilot trip, we are only looking for about 4-5 non-Jewish students and 5-6 Jewish students. The trip is from May 25th-June 3rd and as that date is coming very quickly, although I know it will be difficult with Passover, we would like all applications in by April 28th. Please get in touch with your campus contacts and offer them applications. You might want to ask your contacts at the student union for recommendations about who to take. As always, we will ask you to help us decide who to take from your campus. A JPEG for your newsletters as well as the application is attached. The application can also be found at www.cfjs.ca<http://www.cfjs.ca> If you have any questions, please feel free to reach me on my cell at 647-267-8752 Thanks for your help and good luck!
