Challenge Grant Announcement We are pleased to announce the renewal of a $40,000 challenge grant* that has been generously offered by an anonymous donor. The goal of this challenge grant is to help Nesiya continue to expand our base of supporters and increase annual scholarship resources. According to the terms of the grant, 2008 donations of $1,000 or more will be matched by an additional contribution to Nesiya of $1,000. In addition, Nesiya alumni have the opportunity of batching their gifts with one another: every $1,000 contributed by a group of alumni will also be matched by the anonymous donor. The deadline for meeting this challenge is December 31, 2008. Please consider making a significant and timely contribution to Nesiya and encouraging others to do so. * According to the terms of the challenge grant, the amount of matching funds is based on the annual increase in the number of gifts of $1,000 or more, including the sum total of alumni gifts of any size. The Nesiya Institute is a registered 501(c)3 organization and all donations are fully tax-deductible. Development at Nesiya
Nesiya's creative leadership programs for American and Israeli young people are supported largely by donations from private individuals. Thanks to our dedicated donor base, the past years have been the most successful in Nesiya's 23-year history. Nesiya provided more programs, for more young people, than in any previous year. These successes would not have been possible without our donors' generous gifts and continuous support.

These contributions enable precious staff resources to be focused on intensifying the quality of Nesiya programs and recruiting more young people, rather than concentrating on annual fundraising needs. We invite you to invest in Nesiya programs that build relationships and explore differences among diverse Jewish young people in order to develop leaders and invigorate Jewish life. Every North American and Israeli who receives financial support agrees to fulfill follow-up enrichment, leadership, and service activities in his or her home community. All donations are fully tax-deductible. If you would like to contribute to Nesiya, please donate online above or send your check to: The Nesiya Institute You can also support Nesiya by authorizing automatic payroll deductions through the annual Combined Federal Campaign. The Nesiya Institute's CFC# is 12494 - more information can be found here.
