UPS Delivers

An Olympic sponsor
makes the JCC
its Michigan recipient
of a major new
program for kids.

LONNY GOLDSMITH

Staff Writer

he Jewish Community
Center is the only Jewish
organization selected to
receive a grant from the
UPS (United Parcel Service) Olympic
Sports Legacy Program, which was
founded to provide sports equipment
for disadvantaged children in 11 cities
in the U.S.
"Detroit was chosen because it is a
large metropolitan area," said Stuart
Wachs, director of recreational ser-
vices. We are hosting the Maccabi
Games next year, so it could bring
good visibility."
The Jimmy Prentis Morris JCC in
Oak Park likely will receive the bulk
of the sports equipment donated.
"The JPM deals with an under-
served population, with many new
Americans there," Wachs said.
UPS's program was begun in part-
nership with the United States
4Plympic Committee [USOC], an
outreach program that uses Olympians
as role models for children.
The program was launched at the
USOC media summit in Salt Lake City
on Oct. 28. Wachs recently submitted a
"wish list" to the USOC with over 300
needed items ranging from basketballs
to pre-school gym equipment.
The final determination of what
nd how much is received will be
made within the next two weeks, but
he expects it will total $5,000 to
$10,000.
The equipment will be received
between Jan. 5-16, in a ceremony that
is yet to be planned. According to
Keith Ferguson of the USOC,
Olympians are going to be brought in
top resent the goods to the children
Fundthe JCC.
"This really helps us, because it's
equipment we were going to need
eventually, if not immediately," Wachs
said. "The Center is in transition right
now, and we are focused and recom-
mitted to youth sports. This will
enable us to improve on the quality of
what we can give." ❑
