It has been a tremendous privilege for our family to serve Jewish Omaha as your Federation Annual Campaign chairs and to witness firsthand the enthusiasm and dedication of our wonderful community. The Annual Campaign allows us to meet our collective responsibility of maintaining an exceptional community— and do so together, as one. This community wasn’t built in one day. It was created over many years, and has grown into something we can all be proud of. Our vision for the 2019 Annual Campaign included an emphasis on the connection to our future generations. It’s all about the people in our community; and the dollars raised allows the Federation and its agencies to care for fellow Jews in need, both in Omaha and throughout vulnerable regions of the world. With gifts small and large, we all have a voice and a place in the Federation system. The Campaign dollars also help insure a Jewish future, which is why a significant percentage is allocated towards youth focused education and programming. In addition, the Federation provides opportunities for us all to engage with one another – this strengthens the core of our community, and we hope you have been able to participate in programming like our Campaign Kickoff Event with Sidney Friedman or one of our mission trips to Israel. We appreciate how incredibly supportive Jewish Omaha is and are grateful to the individuals and couples on these pages who recognize how vital the mission of the Federation is to securing a bright future. We thank you all for your loyalty and commitment. Together we are able to Impact Today and Imagine Tomorrow! Warm Regards, Pam and Bruce Friedlander Andee, Anthony, Jack and Joe Scioli Jimmy Friedlander, Sophie Ambrose, Will and Jonah
