JEWISH
TITERS.
For centuries Jews have formed communities to care for one another, to strengthen their connections
and to make sure no one is left out in the cold. Today, with so many divergent views on the issue of
religious diversity and unity, it makes you wonder if the idea and ideals of Jewish community are dead.
* The fact 9f the matter is they're not. In the United States, your United Jewish Appeal Federation
system is your community. It is the world leader in the rescue and care of the Jewish people and in the
strengthening of Jewish life. And nowhere is that more clear than in the struggle for religious diversity
and tolerance in Israel. Over the past decade, our commitment to religious diversity in Israel has
increased 20-fold and exceeds the efforts of all other organizations combined.
AN OPEN AND TOLERANT
ISRAEL MATTERS
This year, the UJA Federation system will invest, through the Jewish
Agency, over $20 million of your contributions on social programs
that educate people about tolerance, democracy, religious diversity
and unity in Israel.
TAKING CARE OF THOSE
IN NEED MATTERS
The LIJA Federation Campaign and the Joint Distribution Committee
will spend $23 million to bring vital basic nutrition to hundreds of
thoUsands of elderly Jews in the former Soviet Union who would
