Together we were ExtraOrdinary! JCS Alliance met and surpassed our goal of raising $18,000 for seniors through the #GivingMarketPlace in a few short summer weeks, raising $22,000! Your generous donations ensure that the homebound seniors and frail elderly that the JCS take care of will have the necessary items needed to maintain their health, safety and wellbeing at home.
We’d like to give a special thanks to The First Fruits Fund for their generous $9,000 matching grant, which definitely helped put us over the top. Their initial support helped inspire us all!
The Jewish Journal covered the JCS Alliance’s initiative with a nice article quoting our co-chair Laura Raiffe on the importance of the Alliance and the work we all do. Click HERE to take a peek. Below are some of the comments we received from various donors about the JCS Alliance’s efforts.
Thank you all again for helping to support our creative campaign and to raise awareness for the needs of our community’s elderly. Together we can always accomplish great things and make an impact!
With Thanks and Appreciation,
Danit Ashkenazi, Rachel Adler Schapiro & Laura Raiffe, Campaign Chairs
Monica Auslander, Sari Levine & Bonnie Weintraub, Chairs
