Dear Shliach,
Thank you for your interest in bringing a new couple on Shlichus to a university or college in your area!
Chabad on Campus International facilitates matching seed grants from the Rohr Family Foundation and the Tabacinic Family Foundation for new campus Shuchim. Both the university and the prospective Shluchim for the new campus must be approved by the Chabad on Campus International Vaad to receive the matching seed grant.
The following is the process for obtaining a seed grant:
•Complete and submit the application below.
•The Chabad on Campus International Vaad will determine if the campus is eligible for the matching seed grant.
•Once approved, prospective Shluchim will need to complete an application. If the Head Shliach does not have prospective Shluchim for the campus, Chabad on Campus International can refer couples seeking campus Shlichus to the Head Shliach to be interviewed.
•Once the prospective couple has been approved by the Head Shliach, members of the Chabad on Campus Vaad will interview them and determine if they are eligible for the seed grant. The prospective Shluchim are also required to submit personality assessment tests, visit the campus they are looking to go on Shlichus to, visit two similar campuses for two days each and raise a minimum of $30,000 prior to moving on Shlichus.
•Once approved by the Vaad, the Head Shliach and new campus Shluchim will finalize an agreement. The Chabad on Campus International Vaad will need to review and approve the agreement on behalf of the Rohr Family Foundation.
•The new campus Shluchim will need to accept the terms of the matching seed grant.
Please review the application below thoroughly prior to starting to complete it. Once you have all of the required information please complete and submit it. Please note that this information gets sent to Mr. George Rohr.
The approval process for seed grant applications can take from a few weeks to a few months depending on numerous variables. To speed up the process, please be sure to complete all of the requirements listed above.
We will keep you informed as soon as we have any updates on the progress of your application.
