F.A.Q.'s
- What should I do if I'm unsure whether I qualify for a Louis Herman Israel Experience Fund (LHIEF) grant?
We recommend that you apply for a grant. After you submit your application, the LHIEF Coordinator will review it and contact you to discuss your eligibility.
- Why won't the on-line application allow me to continue on to the next application page?
The on-line application must be filled out completely. Certain information is required on the application, and if you don't provide that information, the computer will prompt you to include it before allowing you to continue. You may contact the LHIEF Coordinator (952-381-3552) while you are filling out the application if you encounter any problems.
- What happens after I submit my on-line application to the Louis Herman Israel Experience Fund?
After you submit your application, it is secured in an on-line console to which only the LHIEF Coordinator has access. On a regular basis, the Coordinator checks the status of the console and contacts all new applicants to confirm receipt of the application and to explain the rest of the grant process.
- How is LHIEF grant money distributed?
The money is sent directly to the Israel program that the applicant is participating in. From time of application submission, it usually takes approximately ONE MONTH for a check to be credited to your account with the program. For this reason, we encourage you to apply to the Louis Herman Israel Experience Fund as soon as you decide which program you will be participating in. It is also extremely important that you provide all pertinent program contact information requested in the on-line application.
- How will I know that my Israel program has received my LHIEF grant?
After your grant has been approved, we send a check to your Israel program with a cover letter explaining that you're a LHIEF grant recipient. When we send that letter to your program, we also send a copy of that letter to your home address, as shown on your grant application. Deposit of LHIEF funds should be reflected on your next program bill. You should contact the LHIEF Coordinator (952- 381-3552) if you're concerned about the processing of your grant.
