Annual Report 2016 by Jewish Federation of the Lehigh Valley

The Jewish Federation funds & supports a comprehensive network of organizations that do two things: CARE FOR PEOPLE IN NEED here at home, in Israel and around the world.

NURTURE & SUSTAIN THE JEWISH COMMUNITY today and for future generations.

By working with a broad cross-section of community members to raise and distribute funds, we ensure that the programs, institutions and values that enrich our Jewish community remain vibrant and strong. From feeding the hungry to helping the unemployed, from supporting families with special needs to funding Jewish education and Israel experiences and advocacy, the Jewish Federation is focused on addressing the most pressing issues facing our community every day.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR LEADERSHIP

Mark H. Scoblionko President

Dear Friends,

million in just 60 days.

Many needs around the world will be out of our control.

We continued the momentum with our annual Super Sunday mitzvah day and phone-a-thon, raising another $33,000 in a single day.

Although we provide funding for tolerance education, prejudice reduction dialogue and aliyah, we can’t stem the tide of anti-Semitism sweeping through Europe. Although we provide winter relief for the elderly in Ukraine, we can’t stop the wars that rage outside their windows. Although we provide money for bomb shelters in Yoav, help traumatized children in Israel recover and businesses rebuild, we can’t stop the next rockets from falling, whenever they may be. We are there in the wake of natural disasters, but, well ... you get the idea.

Mark L. Goldstein Executive Director

So we focus on what is in our control: to be there when Jews around the world need us and, here at home, to be a warm and welcoming community that raises Jews who will continue to be there for all the “uncontrollables” in the future.

By the end of the year, we had raised nearly $2.3 million and distributed $3.2 million through our campaign and endowment funds. Equally as important was the “friendraising” we did this year. Newcomers to the community were welcomed with personal phone calls and invitations to special events. PJ Library provided an opportunity for young families to come out and celebrate Jewish life. Large-scale events for Super Sunday, Yom HaShoah, Yom Ha’atzmaut and Jewish Heritage Night at the IronPigs brought the whole community together. None of this would have been possible without you, our committed donors, who have supported the Federation for so many years. Thank you for your ongoing support.

It is because of you that we are able to do this, that we are there. Our 2016 Campaign for Jewish Needs busted out of the gate with a 60 Day Challenge from October through #GivingTuesday. Donors stepped up to double the impact of new gifts and increases thanks to a generous matching grant and contributed a total of $1.2

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES IN ISRAEL When 8-year-old Itzik first met Shimrit, his mentor, he was so shy he could barely look her in the eye. But after three years of working closely with her, Itzik’s confidence grew tremendously. He’s now active in school, and much more willing to reach out to family and new friends. Shimrit was paired with Itzik through Youth Futures, a flagship program of The Jewish Agency for Israel, a Federation partner agency, and its Family Futures initiative. Youth Futures’ staff provides community-based mentoring for at-risk pre-teens and adolescents across Israel.

TO HELP OUR FAMILY IN ISRAEL RECOVER, REBUILD AND STAND STRONG, WE ARE THERE. Despite Israel’s economic success, one in five Israeli families lives in poverty. We provide a safety net for the most vulnerable, and we advocate for those in distress.

When Israel is threatened, we mobilize our networks at home and overseas to come immediately to her aid. • Federation has helped millions of immigrants move to Israel and start new lives. • Thousands of elderly benefit from innovative services they receive right in their homes. • Thousands of poor families know their children will have a brighter future thanks to our programs. • Job training programs tackle high unemployment among the one million Israelis with disabilities. • The money we raise during times of crisis – like the $55 million Federations collectively allocated during and in the aftermath of the conflict in Israel in July 2014 – helps keep Israelis safe during conflicts and funds post-trauma counseling for tens of thousands living on the front lines. • We’ve helped hundreds of thousands of young Jews forge a personal connection to Israel through programs like Taglit-Birthright Israel, and built strong relationships between 500 communities in Israel and North America through Partnership2Gether. The Lehigh Valley enjoys a special connection to Yoav through this program.

TO ENDURE THE ONGOING CONFLICT, WHEN JEWS IN UKRAINE NEED US, WE ARE THERE. As conflict wore on in eastern Ukraine, cities became combat zones; near constant shelling brought life to a standstill. Most Jews from Donetsk, Lugansk and the surrounding areas have fled, but some 5,000 elderly and disabled Jews were unable to leave the area. In a shocking development, between 1,500 – 2,000 Jews were displaced from their homes and, unable to find safe havens elsewhere, lived as Jewish refugees on European soil for the first time since World War II.

For our brothers and sisters in eastern Ukraine, our support meant the difference between life and death, between despair and hope. • In the face of inflation and a stagnant economy, prices skyrocketed. More than 30,000 elderly Jews and 4,600 children needed expanded care as their dependency increased dramatically. Our partners provided food and medicine, arranged for first aid and homecare visits and much more. • We bolstered security in key locations, including hiring additional guards, installing camera and alarm systems and making other physical improvements. • Average winter temperatures in Ukraine often plunge below zero. Scarce fuel and lack of funds meant that our distribution of warm clothes, blankets and electrical heating appliances were critical to the survival of thousands of families. • The number of Jewish families from Ukraine considering aliyah increased dramatically. To meet the growing demand, our partner agencies increased their operations to make information about relocation and aliyah counseling more accessible. Those who move to Israel are provided with safe transport and housing upon arrival.

AWAKENING JEWISH IDENTITY IN THE FSU Judaism was not something Oksana Galkevich’s family in Ukraine ever talked about. They didn’t celebrate the holidays or light candles on Shabbat. But it was always under the surface. After all, Oksana loved eating her grandmother’s gefilte fish. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, everything changed. The community Oksana once belonged to was torn apart. She longed to restore that sense of belonging — and so, when a school friend invited her to a Jewish youth club known as Hillel, she happily joined. That visit marked her first Rosh Hashanah of many to come. Inspired by this newfound religious freedom, she decided to dig deeper into her own family’s Jewish roots, asking family members to tell her everything they knew about their history — and slowly, piece by piece, she unraveled the truth. For so many years, Oksana had overlooked her Jewish identity. Now, with this knowledge, she was galvanized to act, and joined in on the effort to revitalize Jewish life in Ukraine. Today, she serves as JDC FSU’s first locally-born representative. 7

TO SECURE OUR JEWISH FUTURE, AND INSTILL JEWISH VALUES AT HOME, WE ARE THERE. Through schools, camps and family programs, we nurture the next generation and bring meaning and richness to local Jewish life. • At the Jewish Community Center and the Jewish Day School, where students are fulfilled with a Jewish education like no other. • Through family life education at local synagogues, offering a wide range of experiences to meet individual needs. • Through the PJ Library program, which provides free Jewish books for children and inspires Jewish conversations at home. • Through Give a Mitzvah, Do a Mitzvah, which adds new meaning and purpose to the bnai mitzvah year. • By offering camp scholarships so that more of our children and teens can grow in a Jewish environment. • Through teen experience grants, VISIT Israel and Birthright, which provide our teens and young adults with formative Jewish experiences that will shape the rest of their lives.

CONNECTING TO JEWISH LIFE AND SHARING JEWISH VALUES Zoe is a PJ Library graduate, but now she gets the pleasure of reading her collection of Jewishthemed books with her younger sister. “I think that it is important that all Jewish kids can learn about their religion and history, and PJ Library is perfect for this,” Zoe says. “The books are fun, interesting and by far the best Jewish kids’ books ever.” Celebrating five years in the Lehigh Valley, PJ Library enhances the lives of Jewish families by delivering free books every month to children ages 6 months through 8 years on a variety of Jewish topics. “The books are great for sparking discussions about Jewish holidays and values,” says PJ parent Andrea Goldsmith. “Noah and Eva love getting mail addressed to them and count their PJ Library books among some of their favorites.” PJ Library also holds frequent events throughout the year to bring families together. PJ recently looked at the “science behind the plagues” for Passover and took a trip to an apple orchard for Rosh Hashanah.

WHEN ISRAEL’S LEGITIMACY IS QUESTIONED, AND ANTI-SEMITISM IS ON THE RISE, WE ARE THERE. Anti-Semitism in France by the numbers: NEARLY 8,000 PEOPLE

made aliyah from France in 2015, quadruple the number in 2012. This is the largest number of French olim in a single year in Israel’s history.

FROM 2013-2015: 97% INCREASE

in the number of acts or attempts at anti-Jewish terror, murder, physical violence, arson, defacing and vandalism.

FROM 2013-2015: 89% INCREASE

in the number of threats, insults, hate mail and anti-Semitic graffiti.

68% OF FRENCH JEWS

say they “do not feel safe anywhere in France” (compared to 58% of the general French population).

63% OF FRENCH JEWS

say they have been insulted for being Jewish.

51% OF FRENCH JEWS

say they have been threatened for being Jewish.

THOUGH HEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BEEN IN ISRAEL FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND IS FAR FROM HIS FAMILY, THIBAULT ALREADY FEELS AT HOME. In Paris, he felt like an outcast. Though his grandparents are Holocaust survivors, Thibault grew up in an assimilated household with little connection to the Jewish community. Yet his Jewish last name still left him a target for rising anti-Semitism. Looking for a new path, he turned to Federation partner The Jewish Agency for Israel. 11

TO STAY ACTIVE AND ENGAGED, WHEN SENIORS IN OUR COMMUNITY NEED US, WE ARE THERE. Through Jewish Family Service and the Jewish Community Center, we are providing valuable resources for Jews over age 65 and their families. • A vital need of many seniors continuing to live at home is transportation. Through The GO Program, Jewish Family Service provides up to three round-trip, door-to-door rides per month to enrolled seniors at no charge. These rides are not only for medical appointments and food shopping, but also for socialization needs. • Friendly volunteers bring Jewish life to residential facilities on Shabbat and at the holidays and visit older adults in their homes. • From PickleBall to current events, brunch and learn programs to bus trips, Adults at the J helps keep seniors engaged and involved in local Jewish life.

KEEPING SENIORS ON THE GO Miriam Kiss of Allentown knows how difficult getting a ride can be. Before learning about The GO Program, Miriam relied on friends to drive her where she needed to go. She has been using The GO Program at Jewish Family Service since its inception. The GO Program offers free door-to-door transportation for Lehigh Valley seniors. When Miriam needs a ride to a doctor’s appointment, she is matched with a trained volunteer driver in the area. Miriam wholeheartedly recommends the program to other people who are struggling to find transportation. “It’s really easy,” she says. “I’ve never had any problem getting where I need to be.”

We partnered with local synagogues to provide briefings on important topics through our Community Relations Council. To celebrate the Maimonides Society’s 30th anniversary, we hosted a TEDMED-level talk with Dr. Steve Klasko, past Maimonides president and CEO of Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health. The money raised in honor of the anniversary was used to purchase an ambucycle for Ma’alot in Israel.

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

THE STRENGTH OF A PEOPLE. THE POWER OF COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY BUILDING

As the central Jewish address in the Lehigh Valley, we unite the community for solidarity and celebration. This year, we performed mitzvot on Super Sunday, marked Yom HaShoah, celebrated Yom Ha’atzmaut and watched the #IronPigsGoKosher.

We delivered books to 315+ kids through PJ Library, â&#x20AC;&#x153;shalomedâ&#x20AC;? 26 babies, sent gifts to welcome 35 new grandchildren and great grandchildren and helped 19 Bnai Mitzvah to create meaningful service projects this year.

OUTREACH

In addition to raising and distributing funds, the Federation provides a variety of services and programs that enrich the Lehigh Valley Jewish community. VOLUNTEERISM AND NETWORKING

PUBLICATIONS

Our award-winning newspaper, HAKOL, serves as the voice of the local Jewish community, bringing news, information, human interest stories and a community calendar to more than 3,000 households per month.

Women new to our community came together this year through our Shalom Lehigh Valley initiative to enjoy coffee and conversation and make hamentashen for Purim. Our Young Adult Division collected food for families in need at Thanksgiving and volunteers made mezuzot with seniors on Super Sunday. 15

As a result, they’ve set up a philanthropic fund, known as the Barbara and Arthur Weinrach Family Fund. The fund allows them to give with ease, vary their annual giving and benefit the organizations they care about most. Art and Barbara started their philanthropic fund with a small amount and increased it as they were able to do so. They especially like the flexibility that the fund allows.
