$250,000 Is Disbursed
In Fisher, UJC Grants

The Max M. Fisher Jewish
Community Foundation of
United Jewish Charities and
the Charities board itself ap-
proved more than $250,000 in
expenditures at their recent
annual meeting. Over the last
23 years, the Foundation has
disbursed more than $2
million for demonstration
projects outside the operating
budgets of Jewish Welfare
Federation agencies.
outlay,
largest
The
$113,200 by UJC, was approv-
ed for new expenditures to
resettle Soviet Jews in
Detroit. Nearly 100 are pro-
jected to be resettled here
from last fall through May 31,
1988.
Hillel Day School has
developed a program that will
maintain the Jewish educa-
tional development of its
students after their nine
years of intensive study. With
a UJC grant of $10,000, the
program's continuity will be
fostered through a program of
monthly social and educa-
tional programs and through
guided study projects.
The Holocaust Curriculum
Project, developed for use in
public high school social
studies classes will receive
$25,000. It combines
videotapes, readings and
hands-on projects to help
students understand the
historical and social implica-
tions of the Holocaust.
Some $3,000 was given to
programs which provide
tutorial assistance to
youngsters with learning pro-
blems at Temple Emanu-El;
and $15,000 for in-service
training for the 100 faculty
members who teach 1,700
children at Temple Israel.
Support of $21,000 was also
approved, for a second year,
for the Jewish Experiences
for Families program
(J.E.F.F.) under the auspices
of the Fresh Air Society, a
Federation agency.
J.E.F.F. combines group
work and informal Jewish
education techniques to pro-
vide effective family activities
under synagogue and agency
auspices. The program trains
volunteers, engages previous-
ly unaffiliated young families
and develops materials.
Second-year funding of
$30,000 will go to the Care
Management program spon-
sored by the Area Agency on
Aging. The project accesses a
network of community-based
services which enable the
frail elderly to remain in
their own homes.
Support of $27,500 was con-

tinued for the In-Home
Respite Care program of
Jewish Family Service.
Respite care provides support
for full-time care givers in
situations where the
terminally-ill or chronically-
ill patient might otherwise be
placed in a nursing home.
Since its inception, the pro-
gram has served 175 families.
Nearly 10,000 hours of
respite care service were pro-
vided this year.
Up to $37,500 in scholar-
ships was approved for local
Jewish educators to attend
the CAJE (Coalition for Alter-
natives in Jewish Education)
conference in Israel this sum-
mer. A UJC grant of $5,000
will help initiate a country-
wide Elder Support Network,
linking families with services
to their elderly parents living
in other communities.
Samuel Frankel was elected
president of United Jewish
Charities, succeeding David
Handleman. Robert H. Nafta-
ly succeeds Stanley J.
Winkelman as chairman of
the Fisher Foundation.
In his annual report on
UJC activities, Handleman
noted the agency's continuing
sponsorship of several com-
munity programs.

sity of Michigan and a Center
for Jewish Studies at Wayne
State University. The educa-
tion of young Judaica
scholars is being furthered
with a grant to the National
Foundation for Jewish
Culture. UJC funded the
showing of "Auschwitz: A
Crime Against Mankind"
and is underwriting the
community-wide celebration
of Israel's 40th anniversary
this spring.
UJC funds are helping with
construction of the new Hillel
Foundation at the University
of Michigan, and enabling the
Jewish ''Home for Aged to
move forward in its study of
future development.
With UJC assistance, the
Neighborhood Project is
working to preserve and
enhance the quality of life in
Oak Park and Southfield.
UJC is funded through en-
dowment donors and accrued
interest on its funds. Thomas
I. Klein reported that the
Federated Endowment Fund
has grown by $35 million
since its inception toward its
$100 million goal. The FEF
now manages 633 funds.
