Cash Collection
Telethon Thursday
Telephones will be ring-
ing Thursday as volunteers
remind contributors to the
1983 Allied Jewish- Cam-
paign to pay off their pledge
balances by year-end.
Payment by Dec. 31 will
allow contributors to take a
1983 tax deduction. But
more importantly, accord-
ing to Cash Mobilization
Chairman Louis Berry and
Collection Review Chair-
man I. William Sherr, it will
permit the community to
meet its promises to the
thousands who rely on be-
neficiaries supported by the
Allied Jewish Campaign.
Jewish Welfare Federa-
tion Treasurer Stanley D.
Frankel noted, "The people
who depend upon our local
and overseas agencies can-
not survive on promises
alone. We need to back up
those promises with cash.".
