RSY-NETZER BURSARY APPLICATION FORM - REFORM JUDAISM (MRJ)
Office Use Only: Applicant FA Code
Finances\Financial Assistance\Forms and Letters

RSY-Netzer strongly believes that our young people should have the opportunity to take part in our events and we strive to support this in every way we can.

RSY-Netzer provides financial assistance for our events in two ways:

1.  Paying in instalments - If you are unable to pay the full amount all at once, but could manage it in instalments, please call Alyson Joseph on 020 8349 5666 to arrange your payment scheme. Final payment must be received no later than 3 months after the event. We prefer payment by standing order, but can accept pre-authorised credit/debit card payments. (Please see attached form). Please note we can no longer accept post-dated cheques.

2.  Bursaries - Bursaries are available to help ensure that everyone gets the opportunity to take part in RSY-Netzer events. Reform Judaism works hard to provide bursaries from a dedicated Financial Assistance Fund.

Please note: your name and details will only be shared with the Financial Assistance Committee and the Senior Administrator and will be kept completely confidential. Your synagogue will not be contacted unless you give us permission to do so.

We understand that some families do not apply for a bursary as they are concerned about the level of financial disclosure required. This year we also will accept applications without financial details, if you would like to submit a request without disclosure, please fill out all sections excluding section 4.
Please note it is likely that only a nominal bursary will be awarded without financial disclosure.
