Through the Annual Campaign and other sources, Federation provides our Community Service Agencies with millions of dollars each year. 1 Local Agencies Hebrew Free Loan Since 1895, Hebrew Free Loan (HFL) has served Michigan’s Jewish community by providing interest-free loans to individuals for a variety of needs. Through donations from generous individuals and foundations, HFL helps Jewish community members with living expenses, medical and dental needs, college, adopt children, establish businesses, enjoy a summer camp experience, celebrate weddings and address emergency situations.

JVS offers a broad spectrum of human services including career development, employment assistance, vocational rehabilitation, case management and specialized services to seniors, affordable housing and financial education and coaching programs.

Overseas American Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) The JDC is the world’s leading Jewish humanitarian assistance organization, working in more than 70 countries and Israel to rescue Jews at risk, to bring relief to Jews in dire need and to renew Jewish community in areas where it has not been allowed to flourish.

    What Would You Do

    World ORT What Would You Do Case Study Booklet We gratefully acknowledge the contribution of Yaffa Fogel in the development of these materials Practice Case Study: ORT after World War I Case Study ORT was first established in the 1880s in St. Petersburg to help the Jews in the Pale of Settlement improve their economic futures. In the first decades of its existence, ORT created schools, language programs, and certifications, and sent much needed equipment to many small Jewish factories throughout the lands of the Russian empire. With the end of World War I in 1918, however, the Russian empire collapsed and a new government emerged amid massive upheaval. This new government introduce policies to enforce strict controls on all independent Russian organizations working throughout the country. ORT lost most of the lands it had been using for training schools. Their deposits in Russian banks disappeared as well. The local Jews, meanwhile, were living in destroyed cities while the world economy was quickly sinking into the Great Depression. The Russian Jewish community did not have the means to finance ORT, and yet they desperately needed the organization’s resources. ORT was looking less and less likely to survive if it was to remain a Russian entity. If you were ORT, what would you do? How could you survive to help the Jews in the Pale of Settlement? Isolate What are the three most important problems in this case study? 1. Local Jews all over Eastern Europe are desperately in need for ORT’s help. 2. The Russian Empire is broken up and ORT has no autonomy under the new Russian government 3.

    Annual Review 2019 V8 Singles

    Annual Review 2019 Placing the future in the hands of the next generation Dear all We are delighted to present to you the 2019 edition of the ORT Annual Review. 2019 has been another year of growth for the organization, as we increase the breadth and depth of our activities. This year, students and teachers from our newly aliated schools in Amsterdam, Bucharest and Singapore participated for the first time in our range of summer schools and educator seminars. As they return home to share their experiences, hundreds more people are benefitting from our expanded network. Our schools, colleges and universities across the world are continuing to provide a quality education to students of all ages, giving them not only the tools to build a successful career, but also the nurturing environment for them to grow as people and as future community leaders. Our after-school activities, from the YOUniversity Centers of Excellence, to our Taub Young Entrepreneurship Program to our Harmatz Awards for Social Responsibility – to name but three – are providing our students with a forum in which to explore wider interests and to develop soft skills that will help them to thrive in all walks of life. Meanwhile, continued improvements in our reporting to donors, our marketing and our communications, are helping to increase our visibility. This in turn promises to increase opportunities for funding and operational partnerships in the future. As we enter an auspicious year for ORT and prepare for the celebrations to mark our 140th anniversary, we look forward to having the opportunity to reflect on ORT’s great past and present, and to plan for a successful future.
