The Alice Cozzi Heritage Language Foundation announces its third grants competition: Individuals and groups working to revitalize and maintain endangered heritage languages are invited to apply for small grants (up to 500 USD*). Past awards have been made for the publication and distribution of dictionaries, lesson books, reference books and literary works as well as for teacher stipends and recording supplies, among other projects. Applicants must answer the following questions in detail: (1) Describe the community the project serves. Where is the language spoken and how many people speak it? What materials are available in the language? (2) Describe your involvement in the language community. (3) Describe the project, including the objectives, timeline and other funding received and/or applied for. Describe how the small grant would be used and how much you are requesting. Applicants must also include the following information: - Name(s) - Mailing address - E-mail address - Phone number - Project location, address and phone (if different) Applications which do not include the requested information will not be considered. Recipients agree to submit a copy of the funded work. The deadline for receipt of applications is September 30, 2006; decisions wil be announced at the end of October. Applications should be made in or attached to an e-mail to alice_cozzi_hlf@hotmail.com. Confirmation of receipt of application will be e-mailed within 30 days. If you are unable to apply by e-mail, send 6 hard copies to the Alice Cozzi Heritage Language Foundation, 96 Bard Lane, Ventura, CA 93001 USA. In awarding grants, preference will be given to those projects which most directly serve economically and educationally disadvantaged communities and whose plans, objectives and budgets are best met by this small award.
