Limmud chair Elliott Goldstein said the backing of Sparks had helped expand its activities outside the capital to the point where over 3,300 people last year attended a regional Limmud.
“We have used our investment from Sparks to support and train the 340 volunteers in 14 regional locations who are responsible for organising Limmuds in their local community.”
Mitzvah Day’s Laura Marks said its Sparks grant helped the organisers to engage “with communities across the country relieving hardship, working on the environment and bringing a little joy”.
