Try putting a dollar figure on the hours of
service given by volunteers to our Jewish
community. You'll come up with a pretty
hefty number. In the millions.
But volunteering isn't about dollars. It's
about bringing joy to the lives of the
aged, advocating for people with disabili-.
ties, raising funds for the Allied Jewish
Campaign and other important causes.
It's about distributing food to the hungry,
Volunteers come in all ages. They pre-
serve our past, and they plan for our
future. Sometimes, their work goes
unrecognized. But they keep on doing it
because it feels right.
To all those folks who devote their time,
talent and heart to our community and
our people,
Thank you from the
