How Can You Improve Cleveland's Jewish Community?
>>Sun Apr 11, 2010
Do you have an idea that could improve Cleveland and its Jewish community? Do you know people who do? Perhaps you're a student with an idea to engage Jews on campus? Maybe you're a tech entrepreneur that has an idea that will create jobs, and connections with Israeli investors? Maybe you're a teacher with an idea that can transform your school? Perhaps you're an agency professional and know how to solve an important problem? Perhaps you're a young Clevelander who wants to see more arts and culture for 20 and 30 year olds?
The Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland and PresenTense want to help bring your idea to life. Pitch us your concept, or forward this blog to others who might. The three selected entrepreneurs will be fully funded by the Jewish Community Federation to spend six weeks at the PresenTense Summer Institute in Jerusalem where they'll learn from and connect to some of the most renowned leaders in business, startups, venture capital, education, culture and more. Upon their return to Cleveland, they'll have their idea incubated by the Jewish community complete with a stipend to provide a runway for launch -- as well as mentorship from the Cleveland Jewish community's communal, social innovation and business leaders.
Make it happen, and change Cleveland for the better.
Applications are due by April 15th at 5pm, and are reviewed on a rolling basis, so APPLY TODAY. Three will be accepted. It could be you.
