It argues that youth movements are key sites for the formation and transmission of communal identities into subsequent generations. It entails institutional studies of three Jewish youth organisations: the Jewish Lads’ Brigade, the Victoria Boys’ and Girls’ Club, and the Maccabi Union and is divided accordingly, with chapters devoted to each. The thesis examines the preferred identities that each club sought to impose on their members, using these identities as case studies for the wider British Jewish community.

Pesach, with its magical family call to reunion, returns us in such a perfectly natural way - perhaps more than any other Jewish holiday - to the delight and appreciation of our being Jewish, mixing an enjoyable reunion with our loved ones with an occasion for national memory and strengthening of our Jewish identity. Reading the Haggadah brings us back more than 3300 years, to the plagues and our freedom, to our redemption as a People. We recall our surge to freedom through singing of psalms and piutim – poems, and we welcome the fact that we are now free – more than ever so in our glorious time of an independent Jewish State. As with Purim – when we usually forget that the Jewish people actually had to fight against not only Haman, but also his followers, killing more than 75,000 of them -- on Pessach we tend to ignore we did not always live under an oppressive regime in Egypt.

  • Jewish Donor Charitie a Recor $272
    e are privileged to continue serving the Jewish community by providing an easy and efficient vehicle to streamline charitable giving and facilitate philanthropy. This has been another record-breaking year for the Jewish Communal Fund (JCF). WA leader in the world of Jewish philanthropy, JCF continues to be the largest and most active Jewish donor advised fund in the country, managing $1.2 billion in charitable assets. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 our diverse donor base granted more than $270 million to thousands of not-for-profits in all sectors. In addition to these generous grants recommended by our donors, JCF makes a community gift of $2 million to the UJA-Federation of New York’s Annual Campaign. JCF’s institutional endowment, our Special Gifts Fund, awarded an additional $767,000 in grants to projects and agencies in the New York Jewish community. Among those grants was one for $240,000 to provide day camp scholarships to families impacted by Hurricane Sandy that enabled 276 children to attend day camp. This is the power and impact of our JCF community! The Jewish Communal Fund is dedicated to providing our donors and their families with outstanding personal service and the philanthropic community has taken notice. Once again, JCF received a four-star rating (the highest distinction possible) from Charity Navigator, an independent and well- respected charity evaluator, and we maintained our place as one of the highest-ranking Jewish organization in the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s Top 400 national charities list. As JCF continues to grow, we know that we must continue to innovate, educate and create new ways to serve our network of donors and the Jewish community.

It was a struggle based on the same ideals that sustain our Maccabi Movement to this day: the right of Jewish Continuity and the Centrality of the Land of Israel (today, the State of Israel) to our existence as a Nation. The Hasmonean-Maccabee Dynasties, who united the will of the people of Israel, faced the greatest empire of the time, the Greeks; they had the simple but sacred goal of regaining and maintaining their right to continue being Jewish. Negating the Jewish Faith and separate identity stood at the forefront of attacks against us by Antiochus Epiphanes (Antiochus III, "the Resplendent"), who introduced measures to enforce assimilation of Jews into the dominant pagan Hellenic culture. The physical life of the Jews was not endangered by these policies, but Jews refused to accept spiritual death – abandoning the Jewish practices which made them "Jews". Faced with his perverse intention, the Maccabees rose up from their rural environment to defend the right we have claimed throughout the millennia of our existence: the right to be able to live and grow as a free people, to maintain our way of life based on principles drawn from our Sources.
