Chamiza Foundation grants

[RNLD Admin]

Dear RNLDers,

The Chamiza Foundation <http://www.chamiza.org/ChamizaWho.htm>, New Mexico
USA, invites grant proposals for programs that relate directly to some
aspect of the preservation and/or continuity of the traditional New Mexico
Pueblo culture — e.g. language, traditional arts and crafts, tribal history,
agriculture, and youth education in traditions and elements of ceremonial
life. The Foundation currently specially encourages the development of
programs directed to youth education in cultural traditions, Pueblo history,
and the inclusion of a language component as well as innovative uses of
technology in those programs.

The grant awards range from $3,000 to $12,000.

Deadlines: March 1, 2011 and June 6, 2011

Eligible organisations include
· New Mexico’s Pueblo Indian organizations and tribal governments.
• Community leaders, artists or other individuals within Pueblo communities.
• Non-pueblo organizations requesting support for programs serving the
pueblos but not originated by these entities are also eligible but must
submit written evidence that the community to be served by the program is
requesting it, i.e. a letter from the Governor of the Pueblo.

Please see the Chamiza Foundation
<http://www.chamiza.org/ChamizaWho.htm>web site for downloadable
application forms and details.
