The year 2015 proved to be challenging for the Illinois Prairie Community Foundation, but in many ways we strove forward building bonds with the community we serve. We shared in the positive and in the difficult economic fortunes of the community. Despite a trying employment picture and an uncooperative economic market, our donor advised fund holders demonstrated their continued generosity, increasing the total value of their grants by over 28% from the previous year. Thankfully, that philanthropic trend is continuing into the new fiscal year. While the stresses in financial markets dented pocketbooks, the Foundation has reason to be optimistic about the future. Youth Engaged in Philanthropy (YEP) is a group of up to 25 area high school students from the Illinois Prairie Community Foundation service area. YEP grants $10,000 annually to local youth-focused efforts through the support of an anonymous donor. However, in 2015 YEP members also established an endowment designed to support the group for years to come. Their endowment drive exceeded all expectations. In June YEP received the Fundraiser of the Year Award at the Council of Michigan Foundations’ youth conference. The award was for the “most creative, unique, outstanding and impactful fund development activity.” The Women to Women Giving Circle had a banner year in terms of increased membership and grant-making. The community saw their leadership in bringing increased awareness of mental health issues and strategies to help meet challenges in this area. The Foundation increased by 34% its assistance through competitive grants to programs that address a wide range of community needs. The ability to assist worthy organizations was possible through donors to our Women to Women Giving Circle and Annual Campaign and the sustained support of the arts community from the Jerome Mirza Foundation. In addition, many of our endowments are providing significant and increasing dollars each year to add to the money available for our competitive grants. Each year we endeavor to reach out to more people to advocate for a culture of philanthropy. This year we opened twelve new funds with individuals and groups including two new scholarship funds, a further investment in our collective future. Our Celebrating Local Philanthropy nonprofit workshop drew record attendance. This benefit to the community would not be possible without an increasing cadre of volunteers. A community foundation is a reflection of the society it serves. We thank you for the opportunity to connect generous donors with causes that help us all be better together.

  • The Position of the Moroccan Jewish Community Within the Anglo- Moroccan Diplomatic Relations from 1480 to 1886
    The Position of the Moroccan Jewish community within the Anglo- Moroccan Diplomatic Relations from 1480 to 1886 A presentation made by Mohammed Belmahi, KCFO, former Moroccan Ambassador to London (1999-2009), upon the invitation of the Rotary Club of London, on Monday 11th. May 2015, at the Chesterfield hotel, 35 Charles Street, Mayfair. [email protected] The Kingdom of Morocco has always considered its Jewish community as an integral part of its social, cultural, economic and political fabric. The Moroccan Constitution of 17 June 2011 states in its Preamble the following: "[The Kingdom of Morocco's] unity is forged by the convergence of its Arab-Islamic, Berber and Saharan-Hassanic components, nourished and enriched by its African, Andalusian, Hebraic and Mediterranean influences." Both at home and abroad, this community has enjoyed the trust, protection and support from the Kingdom's sovereigns. The Jews have in return contributed in the making of a multicultural and religiously diversified Moroccan society. Their craftsmanship, intellectual skills and international trading networks have helped boost the Moroccan economy. Therefore, Moroccan rulers have, throughout history, kept appointing prominent Moroccan Jews to high government positions such as political advisors, ministers, ambassadors, envoys, official trade representatives, or customs-duty and tax collectors. We choose to review this historical reality and examine it from the specific angle of the Anglo-Moroccan diplomatic relations going 800 years back in time. Such a long history permits us to make a deeper appraisal of the Moroccan Jews' position within these relations. Furthermore, our historical investigations are faced with no dearth of source- material, even when looking for data from as far back as the Sixteenth Century, when a continuous diplomatic relationship began between Morocco and England.(1) We will try to appraise this positioning by analysing a set of events and cases depicting Moroccan Jews during four centuries of Anglo-Moroccan relations, from 1480 to 1886.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract of Thesis This thesis examines the birth of secondary education for Jews in England, focusing on the middle classes as defined in the text. This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

  • History of the Jews
    II ADVERTISEMENTS Should be in Every Jewish Home AN EPOCH-MAKING WORK COVERING A PERIOD OF ABOUT FOUR THOUSAND YEARS PROF. HE1NRICH GRAETZ'S HISTORY OF THE JEWS THE MOST AUTHORITATIVE AND COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY OF THE JEWS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE HANDSOMELY AND DURABLY BOUND IN SIX VOLUMES Contains more than 4000 pages, a Copious Index of more than 8000 Subjects, and a Number of Good Sized Colored Maps. SOME ENTHUSIASTIC APPRECIATIONS DIFFICULT TASK PERFORMED WITH CONSUMMATE SKILL "Graetz's 'Geschichte der Juden1 has superseded all former works of its kind, and has been translated into English, Russian and Hebrew, and partly into Yiddish and French. That some of these translations have been edited three or four times—a very rare occurrence in Jewish literature—are in themselves proofs of the worth of the work. The material for Jewish history being so varied, the sources so scattered in the literatures of all nations, made the presentation of this history a very difficult undertaking, and it cannot be denied that Graetz performed his task with consummate skill."—The Jewish Encyclopedia. GREATEST AUTHORITY ON SUBJECT "Professor Graetz is the historiographer par excellence of the Jews. His work, at present the authority upon the subject of Jewish History, bids fair to hold its pre-eminent position for some time, perhaps decades."—Preface to Index Volume. MOST DESIRABLE TEXT-BOOK "If one desires to study the history of the Jewish people under the direction of a scholar and pleasant writer who is in sympathy with his subject, because he is himself a Jew, he should resort to the volumes of Graetz."—"Review ofRevitvit (New York).

  • OCCULT THEOCRACY It Is a Common Error to Believe That the Enghsn Grand Lodge Is an Independent Body Which Was Formed in 1717
    OCCULT THEOCRASY BY LADY QUEENBOROUGH (EDITH STARR MILLER) PUBLISHED POSTHUMOUSLY FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION ONLY IN TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I FOREWORD HIS BOOK makes no claim to literary merit. It is Tsimply a work of research and documentation, giving evidence and facts which I trust will help the reader in drawing his own conclusions. In the course of my researches as an international political investigator into the causes of social unrest, I have probed the depths of infamy which now surrounds, not ours only, but also the next generation, whose right to lead a decent life should be as good as was ours. As a woman of the world I have witnessed things the existence of which I did not suspect and I have realised that, due to my " protected " position in life, they should never have been expected to have come to my knowledge. Let me tell every woman, however much " protected", whether Dairymaid or Duchess, that the safeguards which she imagines to be thrown around herself are but a mirage of the past. Her own and her children's future are at the mercy of those " forces " the activities of which it has been my business, for the 8 OCCULT THEOCRASY last ten years, to follow as one of a group of investigators. Today, most of the good people are afraid to be good. They strive to be broadminded and tolerant ! It is fashionable to be tolerant — but mostly tolerant of evil — and this new code has reached the proportions of demanding intolerance of good. The wall of resistance to evil has thus been broken down and no longer affords protection to those who, persecuted by evil doers, stand in need of it.
