08/31/16 5:00 PM Eastern Time
Matching grants of up to $50,000 to Montreal area, Quebec Jewish day schools that place a strong value on both their Judaic and general studies curricula, and that strongly support the State of Israel. Funding will be provided to schools that successfully raise funds from eligible donors (i.e., individuals and family foundations).
How It Works:
Gifts provided by eligible donors to Montreal area Jewish day schools will be matched at a rate of 1:2. For every dollar granted by a donor, MATCH will provide an additional fifty cents. The maximum amount of matching funds available for an individual donation will be $50,000. The maximum amount of matching funds available for an individual school will be $50,000. All funds are Canadian dollars.

An individual Jewish day school may receive a maximum of $50,000 in matching funds. An institution that receives more than $100,000 in grants may still only receive $50,000 in matching funds from MATCH.
Matching funds are only available for gifts payable to a Jewish day school between September 1, 2015 and December 31, 2016, and schools and donors will be notified on a rolling basis. Matching funds will be distributed to schools by February 2017 once documentation of payment to the school is submitted to and verified by MATCH.
