Give Tornado Aid
Through JFNA's
Central Address
The Jewish Federations of North
America (JFNA), the national par-
ent organization of the Jewish
Federation of Metropolitan Detroit,
is facilitating a way to gather aid
from across the Jewish community
for victims of the devastating torna-
do that tore through the Oklahoma
City suburb of Moore, killing and
injuring many people, and leaving a
wide path of destruction.
JFNA has opened a mailbox to
support relief efforts of the Jewish
Federation of Greater Oklahoma
City. One hundred percent of
funds donated will go to the local
Federation and its relief efforts on
the ground.
"Our hearts go out to all those
who were in the path of this disas-
ter and who are grieving the loss
of their loved ones," said Michael
Siegal, chair of the JFNA board of
trustees. "This was a terrible trag-
edy. The destruction of an elemen-
tary school filled with students and
teachers was especially painful?'
To donate online, go to http://bit.
ly/la2e2TR. To mail your donation,
address it to the JFNA Oklahoma
City Tornado Relief Fund, care
of Jewish Federations of North
America, Wall Street Station, PO
Box 157, New York, NY 10268.
B'nai B'rith International, too, is
collecting funds to help Oklahoma
victims through its Flood, Tornado
and Hurricane Disaster Relief Fund.
Call (800) 573-9057 to make a credit
card contribution over the phone
or send a check payable to the B'nai
B'rith Disaster Relief Fund to B'nai
B'rith International, Flood, Tornado
and Hurricane Disaster Relief
Fund, 2020 K St. NW, 7th Floor,
Washington, DC 20006.

The auxiliary's signature fundraiser
is the W.J. & Lillian Kemler Walk of
Ages event in August.
The auxiliary supports special
musical events, the Nosh Nook and
gift shop, supplies flowers for holi-
days at JSL and also acts as the "wel-
come wagon" for all new JSL resi-
dents. The auxiliary began in 1925,
and is operated with the help of vol-
unteers who are vital for the quality
of life for older adults served.
Tickets cost $75 for "Arts and Eats
to a Motown Beat?' including the bus
tour, lunch and installation at the
Rattlesnake Club in Detroit. The
event is open to the public.
The bus departs from Einstein
Brothers Bagels at 12 Mile and
Orchard Lake Road around 9
a.m. and will return after 3
p.m. Interested? Contact Judy Dunn,
