"We had the best of everything
there, including the best catering ser-
`2 ..e I've ever seen," D. Dan Kahn
said. "It was a lovely evening, with
friendly speeches, flowing wine and
everyone was tanned and pretty."
Said Mark Davidoff, the chief
operating offiCer of the Jewish
Federation of Metropolitan Detroit,
"The general expectation of the
meeting was not to call names and
s ecure gifts but to build foundations
ith a group of prospective donors.
From that point, we were successful.
We knew there would be some
who'd announce gifts at the meet-
ing."
Other officials at the gathering
included Greenberg, JCC President
Larry Wolfe, JCC Executive Director
David Sorkin and JCC Executive
,.-lice President Mort Plotnick.
"It was a beautiful evening, in a
beautiful home with a wonderful
turnout," Greenberg said. "A lot of
people expressed interest in support-
ing the Center."
"I know they raised a few dollars
without blinking an eye — includ-
ing some from me," said Alvin
X/eisberg,
friend of the
0
0 , a long-time
7--
Kahns from Michigan. "I knew there
wasn't 0
going
b to be a hard sell. It was
just a very lovely evening."
Formal fund-raising by Federation
constituent agencies will resume
after April 1, following; the end of
this year's Allied Jewish Campaign.
Until the Florida meeting, the
\JCC had raised about $13.1 million
since last year. Some of the more
recent donor names that will be
attached to JCC areas are: Alan and
Pauline Dubin, for the outdoor
track, 5150,000; Norm and Ann
Katz, for the outdoor pool and
plaza, $350,000; Steve and Arlene
Victor, for the Rosenberg Complex
multipurpose room, $200,000.
"People are hard to pin down now
with so many of them out of the
city, so we're sitting back,"
Greenberg said. We did this to alert
and educate people. We'll start get-
ting the wheels in motion so we can
hit the ground running when the
[Allied Jewish Campaign] corridor
ends.
, At this point, Greenberg's plan is
already in motion. "We have very
already
good prospects for more donations
and we're very pleased. with the
progress so far. Twenty-five million
is a very doable number," he said.
"At first, we were a little unsure, but
now we're very confident." 7
