CLEVELAND – On December 16, the Jewish Federation of Cleveland will celebrate the closing of the 2016 Campaign for Jewish Needs, the annual fundraising campaign that ensures our community’s vitality and vibrancy in the year ahead. The Campaign Closing Celebration takes place at 7 p.m. at Executive Caterers at Landerhaven, 6111 Landerhaven Drive in Mayfield Heights.
Last year’s Campaign raised $30,317,879 from 11,083 donors. This year’s total is expected to exceed that amount.
“We are confident that we will report an outstanding result to the community,” said Dan Zelman, General Campaign Chair. “I’ve enjoyed leading this Campaign for the past two years, and have had the pleasure to meet with many people who are strong supporters of this Campaign and everything that Federation does. I look forward to closing the Campaign on a high note.”
The Federation’s Campaign for Jewish Needs is the annual fundraising campaign that ensures our community’s vitality and vibrancy in the year ahead. Dollars raised help to feed the hungry, comfort the sick, care for the elderly, educate youth, ensure a Jewish future, speak out for what’s right, bridge cultural divides, and support Israel. Together, we are changing and saving lives in Cleveland, Israel and 70 countries around the globe.
The evening will feature an inspirational program and dessert reception, along with the presentation of the Amb. Milton A. and Roslyn Z. Wolf Young Campaigner of the Year Award to Rachel Weinberg of Chagrin Falls. Outgoing General Campaign Chair, Dan Zelman, will be honored as well.
