Recommendation Form below is provided to
nominate persons to receive the Foundation Award

Achievements will be considered in the following areas:

EDUCATION/INFORMATION. A program or media use that spreads Jewish information to a wide public. A published or publishable book that adds something to Jewish knowledge or to understanding of Jewish people; a musical or dramatic stage or film score, script or production with the same standard; a school program that shows content, originality and effectiveness.

RESCUE. Individuals who save the lives of endangered Jewish people, rehabilitate destroyed or damaged Jewish communities, or enable Jewish refugees to find safe haven anywhere in the world.

CREATIVE ARTS. Original or interpretive work in music, visual arts, literature, dramatic arts or mixed media that celebrates or commemmorates Jewish life.

As contributions build the fund, the amount of the award increases. The 2010 award was $25,000. The amount of the 2011 award was $30,000.
