Tomorrow begins today We continue to gather as one community via Zoom, enjoying so many educational and entertaining events and programming offered through the Federation, WCA, MCA, Jewish Book Festival, People of The Book and other cultural and educational programs that have drawn large attendance and encouraged hundreds of new donors to contribute to our 2021 Annual Campaign.
Tomorrow begins today Elijah Cummings, American politician and great civil rights advocate, said in the last year of his life, “G-d’s Minute…I only have a minute, sixty seconds in it, forced upon me, I did not choose it, but I know that I must use it, give account if I abuse it, suffer if I lose it, only a tiny little minute, but eternity is in it.” The minute is now, our beneficiaries’ urgent needs exist now, in this minute, and you, in this minute, can make a difference! Kol Yisrael arevim Zeh Bazeh … we are all one people responsible for one another. It all starts with you. Please continue to give now for the needs of tomorrow!
