[HANASHIR:2926] Re: choir endowment

[Meris Ruzow <meris...>]

don't forget about requesting money for your director to attend the North
American Jewish Choral Festival.   You should check out the following
website and they will have many more answers and ideas for you:
www.zamirfdn.org

There are some zimriyah in the area; it depends where you are.   We
participate in an interfaith one in our area (Schenectady, NY) and have had
our own (Jewish) community shirs at the local JCC's.   Both children and
adult choirs participate.

Feel free to contact me directly for more choir info:   meris (at) 
nycap(dot)rr(dot)com

Shabbat Shalom,
Meris
