Federation Teen Intiative

Federation is launching a new Teen Philanthropy Initiative in an effort to bring together teens from throughout the local Jewish community. The Initiative is intended to strengthen teen identification with their Jewish heritage. It also will, hopefully, help teens use Jewish values to respond to community needs. I’ve attached four documents: 1) a letter introducing the Initiative; 2) a flyer; 3) an application form; and 4) an addendum to the application that requests insurance and emergency contact info, etc. Please share this information with teens that you think might be interested in the program. The deadline for applying to participate is September 8.  Download the form .

Positive PR for Israel

Up against the anti-Israel, anti-semitic machine propelled by the Arab world, it has been hard to fight back and give Israel the image she deserves. As a gift to Israel for her 60th birthday, David Suissa (you can read his op-eds in the LA Jewish Journal) has put his advertising   talent and his passion for Israel together in a new organization called ads4israel.com . 
Take a minute to check out the ads he created- I think they are brilliant!  http://www.ads4israel.com/
