A MESSAGE FROM THE JCCGW’S PRESIDENT AND CEO Thank you for joining us this evening.

Brad Stillman, President

In 1913, our community came together in a shared vision that resulted in a Jewish Community Center to help provide education, arts, culture and social programs and services not otherwise available.

As we begin our second century of service, the JCCGW continues to create a welcoming and inclusive environment, connecting the people of our Jewish community with each other, Israel and the broader community. We inspire individuals of all ages and backgrounds to enhance their social, physical, intellectual and spiritual well-being through Michael Feinstein, CEO programs of excellence rooted in Jewish values. Whether providing meals for seniors, making memories for children at summer camp or giving individuals with special needs a chance to shine, your generosity makes it possible for us to welcome so many people to the Center—and will help us build a new tomorrow for generations to come. This event is the culmination of a lot of hard work put forth by our committee. We want to thank our Chairs Tracy Bloom Schwartz and Alan Schwartz for their dedication, time, energy and talent. We especially wish to congratulate and thank Norma Lee and Morton Funger, recipients of the 2014 Benjamin Ourisman Memorial Award for Civic Achievement. We are grateful for, and inspired by, their long-standing leadership, commitment and support of our community. With sincere gratitude,

Brad Stillman Michael Feinstein President, Board of Directors Chief Executive Officer 3
