Funding for four innovative
community projects has been ap-
proved by the Max M. Fisher
Community Foundation of the
Jewish Welfare Federation's
United Jewish Charities.
Stanley J. Winkelman, chair-
man of the foundation, said Tem-
ple Beth El's Religious School Re-
treat Program received first-year
funding. In conjunction with the
Fresh Air Society, the project will
take place during the the school
year at Camp Maas. By living to-
gether in an atmosphere that is
less structured than the
classroom, the students will
create their own "Jewish com-
munity." They will become more
involved socially and explore a
variety of informal, educational
strategies. More than 400 chil-
dren in grades K-12 will have the
opportunity to play, study and
pray in a camping environment.
The program's goal is to con-
nect these strategies to the
schools' formal curriculum and to
stimulate learning beyond the
school year.
Programs approved for contin-
ued funding include Fresh Air
Society's Israel Teen Travel Mis-
sion, approved for a second year.
Participants combine 26 days
of touring Israel and 12 days in
Ramla, Detroit's Project renewal
sister city, with an Israeli teen
counterpart and his family. Last
year's participants felt that they
made life-long friendships with
their Ramla family. This year's
group will attend six pre-trip
seminars and afterward have the

opportunity to work in communal
service for a Federation agency.
Approved for third-year fund-
ing is the United Hebrew
Schools-Melton Center Program.
Thirty teachers will study in a
two-week seminar sponsored in
conjunction with the Melton Cen-
ter for Jewish Education. In
1985-86, 30 teachers from
synagogues and temples partici-
pated in the program, and the
Melton curriculum was suc-
cessfully introduced into a
variety of educational settings
reaching more than 750
youngsters.
The In-Home Respite Care
program of the Jewish Family
Service was funded for a second
year. With about 75 percent of all
disabled, frail, chronically or
terminally ill people cared for in
their own homes, their caregivers
are often in pressing need of re-
spite, even if only for a few hours
a day or a week.
Designed to help prevent pre-
mature placement of the patient
in a nursing home, respite care
relieves the stress that constant
caregiving brings.
Supported in part by a grant
from the Area Agency on Aging
1-B, the program was given high
priority by Federation's Task
Force on Community-Based Serv-
ices to the Non-Institutionalized
Elderly.
David Handleman is president
of the United Jewish Charities;
which provides funding for the
Max M. Fisher Jewish Commu-
nity Foundation.

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

Travel agent Benny Her-
shkovitz has promised to pay
back all his debts to members of a
Temple Israel tour group whose
trip to Israel was postponed be-
cause of international terrorism.
Hershkovitz, owner of B and H
Travel in Southfield, is being
sought by the State Police special
investigations unit on a charge of
larceny. A federal fugitive war-
rant has been requested for him.
According to State Police Lt.
Douglas Rose, Hershkovitz failed
to refund more than $100,000 to
the congregation upon the trip's
cancellation. Police said that
when they were called into the
case, Hershkovitz and his wife
had moved out of their home and
closed their offices.
As The Jewish News went to
press, Hershkovitz was still not
in custody, but believed by Rose
to still be in town.
On Tuesday, Hershkovitz had
called Jewish News Editor
Emeritus Philip Slomovitz. "He
told me not to believe the rumors
about him and that he will pay
back all of his debts," Slomovitz
said.
Attorney Jimm F. White, a
board member of the temple who
is handling its case, said, "We are
hopeful that we can recover the
money and the temple has
pledged to do the right thing in

regard to members and the con-
gregation."
The case is being pursued by
the Livonia unit of the State
Police, which investigates "white
collar" crime.

Israel Condemns
South Africa

Jerusalem (JTA) — The For-
eign Ministry strongly con-
demned the state of emergency
declared by the South African
government. A statement re-
leased last Sunday said it viewed
with "extreme gravity" that
government's refusal to - allow
the Black community to mark
the 10th anniversary of the
Soweto riots.
Israel announced a short while
later that it would join the
worldwide protest by shutting
down its Embassy in Pretoria
for 24 hours last Monday.
The Foreign Ministry's state-
ment went on to say that in
accordance with Israel's funda-
mental and consistent opposi-
tion to apartheid, it is convinced
that the latest deterioration of
the situation in South Africa
poses serious dangers to the
welfare of the entire South
African population.
