Ziffer, the Federation's direc-
;_;or of agency planning.
To help meet a $360,000
shortfall in this year's alloca-
tions to local agencies, the
Federation suspended contri-
butions to its inter-agency
pension plan. Ten local agen-
r _-- es of the Federation partic-
J ipate in this fund.
4, JCCouncil will receive
$492,000, down from
- -:1532,000. "A 5 percent loss is
going to be very difficult to
sustain," said David Gad-
iarf, executive director of the
iJCCouncil. "We're going to
-,have to go beyond freezing
salaries. We're going to have
to look at our programs with-
out diminishing their effec-
tiveness overall. '
L -- Mr. Gad-Harf said his
(-itgency has begun to explore
other sources of revenue, in-
cluding its own fund-raising,
,so as not to be totally depen-
dent on the Federation. "We
are actively exploring other
w:Jurces of revenue which, over
me, we hope will replace any
ti
future shortfall."
After fund-raising costs and
allowances for uncollectible
pledges, the Federation had
S22,999,000 from the Cam-
paign to divide between 48
Jewish agencies in this coun-
- ..-y and in Israel. Last year's
—allocation was $23,917,500,
and in 1990 it was
$24,420,850.
"The recession happened to
1- hit in Detroit the hardest this
year," said Mr. Ziffer. "And
, the impact of the recession in
, "terms of the needs of clients
seemed to hit its highest peak
this year."
Many Jewish communities
' across the country suffered
even worse campaign short-
falls, said Peter Alter, chair-
>man of Federation's Con-
ference of Division Chairmen
which steers the local budget
process. The Boston campaign
2 is off 25 percent from a few
years ago, he said.
Jewish Family Service,
i'Jewish Vocational Service
and Jewish Federation Apart-
ments, local agencies which
directly serve Jewish clients,
) received increases over their
1991 allocations.
"These agencies serve some
cof the most vulnerable people ,
' in the community, including
the poor, the elderly, persons
with disabilities and those ex-
- periencing personal or family
loss," said Benjamin Rosen-
thal, chairman of Federation's
' 7community service planning
Dcommittee.
Based on a formula that
has stood for decades, about
60 percent of the Federation's
net Campaign fund goes to so-
cial programs in Israel and to
Jews in 43 other countries
