Jewish Vocational Service is half way toward a goal of $3 million in its endowment campaign, said Barbara Nurenberg, JVS executive director. The 58-year-old agency that began as a job placement service for the Detroit Jewish community has turned to endowments as a way of generating long-term support and stability, she said. With a budget of nearly $16 million this year, and only $55,000 of it coming from endowment earnings, JVS realized that support from its 12 funding agen- cies, including the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit and the United Way, might decrease in the future. Boosting endowments has become one way of solving the problem. The Southfield-based JVS offers employment and career development, vocational and therapeutic rehabilita- tion, job-skills training and specialized senior adult services. "The issue of how to fund the kinds of services that people expect and need are more of an issue," Nurenberg said. "We need to be able to maintain the level of services that we give." •••• P., kk.; A k L6 • ,
