Lead The Way Scholarship
Benefits Akiva Students
Ethical Dilemmas In Combating Terrorism
will be the featured presentation by Dr.
David Shatz, professor of philosophy,
Stern College, Yeshiva University in New
York, during Akiva Hebrew Day School's
second annual "Lead the Way" summer
dinner party.
The scholarship fundraiser is scheduled
for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 24, at the Southfield
home of Akiva parents Dr. and Mrs. Howard
Korman.
"All members of Detroit's Jewish commu-
nity are invited to support Akiva and attend
this summer gathering;' says event co-chair
Sharona Shapiro. "This school offers a
wonderful nursery through high school
educational experience for families seeking
a child centered learning environment"
Southfield-based Akiva, Metro Detroit's
only Modern Orthodox Zionist day school,
has received a commitment from an anony-
mous donor to match $100,000 in scholar-
ship funds. Funds raised by the school
through the end of August will be applied
exclusively towards tuition scholarships.

"We have an incredible opportunity
to increase our scholarship fund and
provide tuition assistance in what has
unfortunately turned out to be yet
another very difficult year for a signifi-
cant number of our families:' said Akiva
President Dr. Joseph Greenbaum.
"We are blessed to have been met
with such kindness again and we must
meet this historic challenge. Reaching
our goal last year meant we were able to
furnish additional scholarships, and we
maintained fiscal responsibility by not
dipping into our general fund reserves
to meet essential scholarship needs."
This summer's party is co-chaired
by Dr. Nossonal and Nancy Kleinfeldt,
Dr. Martin and Sarah Kornblum, Dr.
Michael and Anne Lehmann, Kimberly
and Bryan Schon, Sharona Shapiro and
David Lerner, and Marla and Jerold
Zwas.

at (248) 386-1625. Akiva is a constitu-
ent agency of the Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan Detroit.
