Leadership Investment for Tomorrow (LIFT)
Established by local donors, the Leadership Investment For Tomorrow (LIFT) grant has been created with one specific purpose – to provide tuition incentives to Jewish families who want their children to experience a Day School education.
The LIFT tuition grant will be available for the 2011-2012 school year for Kindergarten, First and Sixth Grades, as well as all new students in Grades 1-8. Incentives of $2000 for all Kindergarteners; $500 for returning Sixth Graders; and $3000 for all new students in Grades 1-8 will be available to help make your child’s day school education a reality.
To participate in the LIFT program, parents will select one of the following options:
- Accept the incentive in full
- Utilize a portion of the incentive
- Decline the incentive entirely
Any incentive that is not used will return to the Fund, so that additional families may receive the tuition incentive in the years to follow. Tuition assistance will continue to be available to families of all students, including LIFT recipients.
The LIFT Fund was established at the Jacksonville Jewish Foundation, a Jacksonville-based agency whose mission is to develop endowment funds and planned gifts in support of the local Jewish community.
