they are written in such a way that they can be used for anything.

and i mean anything.

and of course, they’re only given to those with “protexia”, not necessarily those who need it.

let’s start with this: does your shul / miossad have a video system? mine does, and it cost less than $1,000.00. but if its a govt grant, WOW — $10,000 plus.

The grant money that weiner and others take credit for getting to yeshivos is done in a manner that has no rhyme or reason. Even the people in Albany who administer the program admit that they have no idea how the people in Washington decide who get the money. In many ways its a joke and very deserving schools keep being not funded over and over.
