Give Tzedakah
For Chanukah
A new kind of Chanukah gift-giving
— "Simply Tzedakah: Kids Helping
Kids" — will be introduced by the
Jewish Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit to link children and their fami-
lies to Jewish people around the world.
Instead of a Chanukah gift on one
night of the holiday, parents, grandpar-
ents, aunts, uncles and friends are
encouraged to make a minimum $18
gift to the 1998 Allied Jewish
Campaign in each child's name.
Campaign gifts benefit many programs
and services relating to children, in
addition to helping older adults, peo-
ple with disabilities, new Americans,
refugees and others.
Children honored by the contribu-
tion will receive a personalized certifi-
cate and a small gift from Federation.
Contributions of $18 or more will be
published in a special Israel 50th
anniversary scroll of honor at the close
of the 1998 Campaign.
Chairing the project are Stacey
Crane and Anita Naftaly.
Deadline for sending names and
checks to Simply Tzedakah is
December 5th. Checks should be
made payable to the Allied Jewish
Campaign and mailed with every
child's name and address and the
donor's name and address to: Tanya
Mazor-Posner, Jewish Federation of
• Metropolitan Detroit, P.O. Box 2030,
Bloomfield Hills, MI 48303-2030.
