United Jewish Charities OFFICERS There are good reasons why Detroit is renowned as a Jewish community of creative vision and unlimited energy. David Handleman President One of those reasons is United Jewish Charities, Federa- tion's predecessor and continuing partner in service. Samuel Frankel Carolyn Greenberg Graham A. Orley The organization hardly shows its age as "Charities" continues to build upon the foundations laid down in 1899. In its wide-ranging activities, UJC fills many roles: community trust officer, manager of communal proper- ties and investments, and financial resource for facilities and exciting new programs through our agencies. Vice - Presidents Martin S. Kraar Secretary D. Larry Sherman Treasurer Out of the general funds that UJC holds, we support some important services that other community resources are unable to fund.
