From Allocating to Volunteering: TPI 2009
 The Teen Philanthropy Institute (TPI) 2009 is rapidly coming to a close. In its second program year TPI had two cohorts. TPI: Mid-Atlantic, the group of returning participants, chose to focus on allocating funds to organizations in Israel. TPI: Bergen, new participants to the program, allocated funds to Bergen County based organizations. Both cohorts learned about the allocation process and grant making procedures, as well as the significant impact their funding will make on the selected organizations. A total of $18,000 was allocated to the six organizations listed below.
Congratulations to the TPI funded organizations!
The TPI 2009 Banquet will be taking place on Sunday May 17th. For more information, or if you would like to attend, please contact Daniel Rothner at (201) 244-6702 or [email protected]. |
