<p><strong>Background</strong><br />
We Are All Brooklyn (WAAB) is a coalition of more than 75 community and faith-based organizations in Brooklyn born in the aftermath of 9/11. WAAB brings leaders from diverse cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds together to solve<br />
quality of life issues affecting their communities. The We Are All Brooklyn (WAAB) Fellowship is a leadership development program dedicated to advancing the next generation of Brooklyn’s young diverse leaders. WAAB fellows come together to learn how to utilize diversity as an asset to themselves, their agencies, their communities, and Brooklyn. Through their shared experiences and participation in WAAB, the fellows come to understand that through building, broadening, and strengthening ethnic, cultural, and religious ties in Brooklyn there is far more that unites us than divides us. Ultimately, fellows discover how they can help communities share resources, manage dynamic tensions, and collaborate on solving problems.<br />
Leading By Giving is the 2010-2011 grant-making committee of We Are All Brooklyn Fellowship.</p>
<p><strong>Purpose</strong><br />
The 2010-2011 Leading By Giving committee aims to promote the values of the fellowship by awarding a grant up to $1,000 to support and empower a Brooklyn-based organization that fosters entrepreneurial activities through intergenerational relationships.</p>

• Organizations promoting (or seeking to promote) entrepreneurial activities using intergenerational relationships.<br />
• Organizations with an annual operating budget of less than or equal to $250,000.</p>
<p><strong>Guidelines for Eligible Projects</strong><br />
Favorable consideration will be given to projects and programs that:<br />
• Encourage diversity, understanding, and inclusiveness among participants through entrepreneurial activities. An entrepreneurial activity is any activity that promotes the transformation of an idea into an economic venture. Entrepreneurial skill-building activities are eligible.<br />
• Emphasize interaction and relationship building between different generations (i.e. teenagers and seniors; middle aged adults and young adults; etc.)<br />
• Propose unique and innovative strategies for addressing the needs of the target population.<br />

<p><strong><br />
About the Campaign for Community Change</strong></p>
<p>The Campaign for Community Change (The Campaign) aims to increase the profile of policy issues that matter to low-income people and people of color; educate and empower communities to act on those issues; and influence the federal legislation to benefit low-income families and communities. Specifically, the Campaign works to equip low-income, immigrant and communities of color with the skills and resources to participate year-round in the electoral process. The Campaign&#8217;s goal is to ensure that these communities&#8211;historically underrepresented in voter turnout&#8211;are recognized as constituencies to which every candidate is accountable. We aim to promote a culture of civic participation and assist our constituencies to become fully engaged in American democracy.</p>
<p>One of the most distinctive elements of the Campaign is that it is driven by local grassroots groups and leaders.  The Campaign provides guidance and support, but the ownership is in the hands of the people from these communities and the organizations to which they belong. The Campaign will provide partner organizations with an array of support and resources to help them reach their electoral goals through voter education, registration, mobilization and protection, as well as efforts designed to strengthen the membership and leadership within their organizations.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Chalk one up to the many activists, organizations and political commentators who took on Representative Chris Smith (R-NJ) and House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) for their <a href="http://www.thirdwavefoundation.org/redefining-rape-forcing-pregnancy-push-back-on-hr3/">attempt to redefine rape</a> as part of a new bill Smith introduced, the &#8220;<a href="http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&amp;docid=f:h5939ih.txt.pdf">No Tax Payer Funding for Abortion Act</a>&#8221; [PDF]. As originally drafted, the bill proposed to narrow the Medicaid funding exception that currently provides coverage for abortions in the case of rape to only cover a new category of &#8220;forcible&#8221; rape. Now, after five days of whirlwind outrage, such as the <a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23DearJohn">#DearJohn</a> <a href="http://maddowblog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/02/02/5969241-less-government-more-sexism?commentId=20389694">Twitter campaign</a> and Jon Stewart&#8217;s segment on <em>&#8220;Rape Rape&#8221; vs. &#8220;Rapish&#8221;</em> (below), <a href="http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/02/report-republicans-give-up-on-forcible-rape.php">the clause was finally removed</a> this morning.</p>

<p>Let&#8217;s not breathe a sigh of relief yet. There is so much yet left to challenge in the Smith Bill that would damage our ability to determine what happens to our bodies. The &#8220;forcible rape&#8221; clause was only one in a series of attacks on our reproductive and health options, especially for young people, low income people, and people of color.</p>
<p>The National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum (NAPAWF), the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health (NLIRH), and the Reproductive Health Technologies Project (RHTP) <a href="http://latinainstitute.org/news/NAPAWF-NLIRH-and-RHTP-Oppose-the-%E2%80%9CNo-Taxpayer-Funding-for-Abortion-Act%E2%80%9D">released a statement</a> that calls the bill on its racist ramifications.</p>
<blockquote><p>This bill would strip a woman of her right to decide which options best suit her health care needs and would add cruel restrictions for victims of sexual violence. Access to abortion is critically important for women of color and immigrant women who are disproportionally poor. Presently, 25% of poor women who want to choose abortion can’t because the federal government refuses to pay for it.</p></blockquote>
<p>Among <a href="http://latinainstitute.org/news/NAPAWF-NLIRH-and-RHTP-Oppose-the-%E2%80%9CNo-Taxpayer-Funding-for-Abortion-Act%E2%80%9D">a slew of other attacks on women&#8217;s access to healthcare</a>, the bill would destroy private insurance coverage of abortion with broad reaching impact.</p>
<p><a href="http://motherjones.com/mojo/2010/12/end-abortion-insurance">Mother Jones</a> explains that although the proposal &#8220;has a stated aim of making the Hyde Amendment (a rule that has to be renewed every year that prohibits federal funding of abortions through Medicaid) into permanent, government-wide law&#8221; it could be &#8220;a Trojan horse for the elimination of private insurance coverage for abortion.&#8221; Specifically,</p>
<blockquote><p>Smith&#8217;s bill would create a huge incentive for employers to only offer health insurance that doesn&#8217;t cover abortion. Insurers would respond to what their customers wanted, and the percentage of health plans offering abortion coverage—currently 86 percent—would undoubtedly plummet.</p>
<p>…The employer tax exemption for health insurance is the government&#8217;s largest tax expenditure. It affects nearly every American who gets health insurance through their employers. If the abortion rights advocates are right, the tax section of Smith&#8217;s bill would affect far more people (and more money) than any other portion of the law.</p></blockquote>
<p>We need to see this win — the removal of the &#8220;forcible rape&#8221; clause — as <em>only the first step of many</em> in knocking apart the Smith bill. My greatest fear is that we allow ourselves to celebrate or to be distracted: this is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtPlasbULTc">not</a> a compromise. As a community of activists who care about protecting the health and well-being of the people who are most vulnerable to the harsh impacts of abusive legislation, we need to see the larger picture.</p>
<p>Every part of this bill is a systematic attack on our access to safe, high quality and affordable healthcare, and we need to <a href="http://tigerbeatdown.com/2011/02/02/dearjohn-sign-the-petition-to-stop-hr3/">sustain our efforts</a> to change it.</p>
