Dr. Shiffman serves on the Alliance for Jewish Education, a new Federation initia- tive to enhance community planning for all levels of Jewish education.

A retired surgeon, Dr. Shiffman is involved with the Jewish National Fund, Machon L'Torah and Jewish Vocational Service. He's also involved in real estate. "He said to me once that whenever he closes a deal, it feels good to know some of it will go back to the com- munity," said Rabbi Daniel Nevins of Adat Shalom, where Dr. Shiffman is past president. "They're a very nice couple and they really care about the whole Jewish community." Fl HIGH SC car Vernice Davis Anthony Josephine Stern Weiner Nancy N.
