Limmud NY: Outreach to RSJ Participants

New York is home to the largest Diaspora of Russian-speaking Jews in North America, estimated at half a million people. While there are a number of programs and organizations that attract Russian-speaking Jewish participants, GPG is working to promote the integration of RSJ's into more mainstream Jewish phenomena such as Limmud. GPG's grant allowed Limmud NY to provide scholarships for over 25 Russian-speaking young adults who attended the 2009 conference for the first time.
