Leslie Crane, President 2015-2017

It has been a busy year at our Jewish Federation and we would like to share some of our highlights with you.

Our Federation promises to build a strong Jewish future through philanthropy, education, engagement and advocacy. This promise is realized every day through our work in partnership with you, our donors.

Our goal at Federation, as a community agency, is to provide the programs and services that no one individual agency can implement independently for everyone.

One of the ways we are meeting this promise is through a new initiative for 20 and 30 year olds, many of whom are new to Rochester, to engage them in Jewish life on their terms. It is so important to connect with this generation NOW.

Our Community Relations department is taking the lead on interfaith dialogue. We are deepening our relationships with faith communities to stand together against hatred and build strong coalitions. It was comforting when our interfaith partners stood by our side when our Jewish community faced threats and vandalism.

Our Center for Holocaust Awareness and Information (CHAI) continues to bring survivors to local area schools to educate our students about the Holocaust as a quintessential example of the outcome of hatred. CHAI recently launched a website documenting stories of Rochester Holocaust survivors on video and audiotape. This website, www.RochesterHolocaustSurvivors.org, keeps our survivors’ stories alive in perpetuity.

Our Women’s Philanthropy continues to ignite and excite women of all ages. A new program added this year was “13 Extraordinary Women.” We had an opportunity to celebrate 13 extraordinary women from our community as they shared their secrets for success. This new and unique program was truly a celebration!

Throughout the year, PJ Library brought many young families together to celebrate Jewish life.

Federation is committed to working in partnership with agencies and synagogues to ensure a vibrant future. Our “Celebration of Community” was a first as we gathered for a collaborative Annual Meeting with Hillel Community Day School, Jewish Family Service, and the Louis S. Wolk Jewish Community Center. This business meeting was well received.

We cannot leave out our annual campaign, which is the fuel that funds all our work. Your support, generosity and passion make all this possible. We thank you so much!

AREAS OF IMPACT: Highlights from 2016-2017Strengthening our Jewish future in Rochester, Israel and around the world through philanthropy, engagement, education and advocacy

RESPONDING TO HATE AND ASSAULTS ON CIVIL RIGHTSThe Federation and our Community Relations Department took the lead in advocacy, responding to threats in our community and beyond.

When the Waad Hakolel cemetery in northwest Rochester was vandalized, we organized a press conference with Ambassador Dani Dayan, Consul General for Israel in New York (photo right), and began a fundraising campaign that raised $17,589 for repairs.

When flyers espousing white supremacy were repeatedly disseminated in our area, the Federation brought together an inclusive group of faith communities to condemn the acts. We stood up for all those oppressed by hate, placing full-page ads in the Democrat and Chronicle and City Newspaper.

communityrelations

Repeated bomb threats to the Louis S. Wolk JCC of Greater Rochester prompted a media campaign with the Federation in a leading role, including television appearances, a multi-faith press conference and a comprehensive effort to keep the community informed.

We spoke out when the rights of immigrants from Muslim countries were threatened, placing an essay on the opinion pages of the Democrat and Chronicle.

“I wasn’t planning on settling in Rochester – I didn’t think there was much going on for people my age – but then I started attending the Federation’s young adult Shabbats and other programs and everything changed. I’m staying.” – Heard by a young adult this past year.

20s& 30s

A GROUNDSWELL OF ACTIVITY AND ENGAGEMENTThe Federation added staff dedicated to engaging young adults in 2016, focusing on growing involvement in this critical demographic.

Over 100 individuals in their 20s and 30s were involved in young adult Shabbat dinners, community service projects and social events throughout the year.

Social MediaEngaging young adults and older ones, we advanced our social media strategy – almost doubling our Facebook followers to 1500 in 2017 and adding new followers every day. We expanded the use of Twitter and Instagram to grow those online communities.

“Faced with the largest refugee crisis in all of human history, the U.S. must continue to be a safe haven for people fleeing religious persecution, genocide and terror.” – From an essay by Federation President Leslie Crane and CEO Meredith Dragon, published in the Democrat and Chronicle, February 18, 2017.

teens

Over 200 teens from our Partnership2Gether relationship with Modi’in, Israel have experienced the life changing Journey for Identity to date. In each cohort – JFI 7 took place in summer, 2017 - 30 or so teens from both communities embark on a three-week, three-continent tour of Jewish roots and routes. Together they explore what it means to be Jewish in the US, experience Jewish history, including Holocaust sites, in Poland and share the wonder of modern Israel. They see these worlds with their own eyes and through the eyes of their “matches” from across the ocean.

In a recent study of JFI impacts: 100% of JFI participants graded the JFI experience

and its impact on their lives as great or good. 89% say the experience strengthened their

Jewish identity. 89% say that JFI made them better able to defend Israel.

PARTNERSHIP2GETHER: JOURNEY FOR IDENTITY

Another powerful experience for teens involving Israel was a pilot project produced with support from the William and Sheila Konar Foundation entitled “Engaging Conversations About Israel: Explore. Connect. Reflect.” We brought Resetting the Table, a premier Israel education organization, to Rochester to conduct this four-part seminar which challenged participants to think about Israel in new ways.

“This program will help me learn more and be able to use active listening to help avoid conflict and to educate others and myself.” – “Engaging Conversations About Israel” participant

“Before JFI I really did not understand what being Jewish meant. After JFI, I understood that it is not just a belief but a strong community of people who have great morals and hope for the future.” – JFI participant

In Rochester, over 600 children ages 6-8 receive the gift of a free Jewish-content book or CD each month through PJ Library, with local funding from the Max and Marian Farash Charitable Foundation. In addition, the Rochester Federation sponsors PJ Library events in synagogues and in Jewish and secular settings throughout Monroe County to engage new families.

“We have a two year old and are a mixed faith couple… We were inspired to light Shabbat candles on Friday. Our daughter points to the candles and says ‘Shabbat’! She also likes baking challah with her dad, who has a renewed passion for finding the perfect recipe.” – PJ Library Connect participant

In a recent national study of PJ Library participants: 96% said PJ Library

supported their family in having conversations about Jewish traditions, values and/or customs.

91% said PJ Library was a valuable parenting tool.

94% of mixed faith families said PJ Library increased their confidence to engage with their children regarding Jewish traditions, values and/or customs.

Highlights in the past year include: The addition of a PJ Library

Ambassador and song leader, bringing the program to life throughout the community.

WOMEN’S PHILANTHROPY REPRESENTS A CORE COMPONENT OF OUR FEDERATION COMMUNITYOur women continue to demonstrate exemplary leadership as donors to our Annual Campaign, giving a total of $1,103,270 in 2017, an outstanding achievement.

THE FEDERATION’S CENTER FOR HOLOCAUST AWARENESS AND INFORMATION (CHAI)

CHAI

“I had been quiet about my experience during the Holocaust, avoiding painful memories about our murdered family members. Seeing the stories on the website made me decide that I should add my comments. It is important that we remember and make those who voice doubt about the horror see and hear that we will NOT be forgotten.” – Werner Schenk, survivor

CHAI broke historic ground this year with www.RochesterHolocaustSurvivors.org, an online archive of Rochester-based survivors of the Holocaust. The site includes videos of local survivors’ stories, audio and written testimony and a host of photographs documenting survivors’ lives before and after the Holocaust.

The project came out of years of work on the part of volunteers at CHAI and the Louis S. Wolk JCC of Greater Rochester, who helped bring this innovative project to fruition.

“Women’s Philanthropy is an incredible community of women of different ages and backgrounds connected by Jewish values and our commitment to the Jewish Federation. We enhance life in our community through service projects and educational programs, leadership opportunities and philanthropy.” – Ruth Sklarsky, Women’s Philanthropy Chair

13 Extraordinary WomenA brand new Women’s Philanthropy program, “13 Extraordinary Women Share the Secrets of Their Success,” debuted this year. It was a celebration of the diverse accomplishments of women of all ages in Rochester’s Jewish community, including an artist, a judge, a playwright and several bubbes. Over 330 community members came out to wish this esteemed roster of women a mazal tov.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH JOINT DISTRIBUTION COMMITTEE (JDC) HIGHLIGHTSWith the help of our philanthropic contributions, JDC works in 70 countries to alleviate hunger and hardship, rescue Jews in danger, create lasting connections to Jewish life and provide immediate relief for victims of disasters.

WORLD ORT HIGHLIGHTSWorld ORT, another Federation service partner, is the largest Jewish education and vocational training NGO (non-governmental organization) in the world, focusing on science and engineering enrichment, Jewish identity building and reaching the most vulnerable students.

World ORT provides comprehensive educational services in Israel, the former Soviet Union, Latin America and Europe to an estimated 300,000 students each year.

Learn more at www.ORT.org.

“I visited an elderly woman in Bobruisk who lives in what once was a stable. She has no indoor plumbing and relies on a small wood stove – with fuel for only a couple of hours a day – to combat the effects of a Belarus winter. The conditions are hard to imagine for those who have not seen them firsthand.” – David Schizer, CEO of JDC

Find out more about the vast scope of JDC at www.JDC.org.

PROMOTING A HEALTHY JEWISH FUTURE OVERSEASAs part of a global collective of 148 Federation communities across North America, the Rochester Federation relies on overseas partners to fulfill our philanthropic mission of caring for Jews wherever they may live. As a comprehensive social service safety net, we ensure that no Jew stands alone.

THE JEWISH AGENCY FOR ISRAEL HIGHLIGHTSThe Jewish Agency for Israel’s historic mandate is to bring Jews to Israel — due to crisis or by choice — and to help immigrants acclimate to their new home. They help vulnerable Israelis by providing educational programming and responding to emergencies.

27,676 Jews were assisted in making aliyah to Israel in 2016, including 5,027 from France and 5,862 from Ukraine.

The Jewish Agency gave 618 grants to families who lost everything due to devastating fires that ravaged Israel for eight days. Rochester community members donated $2,214 to that total.

4,381 children and 8,000 of their family members received guidance from mentors through the Youth Futures program in 2016-17.

Wherever Jews live, the Jewish Agency connects them to our shared homeland.

Over 12,000 children and 1,200 teens are involved in informal education services across the former Soviet Union.

Tens of thousands of Russian-speaking Jews around the world engage in camping and educational programming.

Learn about the global reach of the Jewish Agency for Israel at www.JewishAgency.org.

Our Partners Overseas

Elderly Jews in the former Soviet Union are the poorest Jews in the world. A retired engineer or doctor in Ukraine has a pension of approximately $2 per day. JDC helps care for 110,000 elderly Jews, including 50,000 victims of the Nazis, supplying food, medicine and home care.

The Rochester Federation supplies direct aid — a $40,000 grant — to Ethiopian Israeli Jews in Lod through a program called PACT (Parents and Children Together), aiding over 500 children ages 0-6. Our support helps with Well Baby Clinic support, literacy and math enrichment and more.

Our Federation contributes $25,000 to World ORT’s Digital Skills Academy in Bulgaria. “They came thousands of kilometres to learn the latest in photography and AV production but the students have returned home with much more: good communication and collaborative skills that will help them stand out from the crowd.” Coordinator Plamen Petrov
