In the past decade alone, we have distributed over $2 billion to thousands of public charities at the recommendation of our donors. What many may not know is that beyond facilitating our donors’ philanthropy, JCF is charitable in its own right. Every year, JCF makes a substantial annual Community Gift that supports nonprofit programs and institutions in the local and global Jewish community. Our Community Gift consists of two parts: grants to specific projects from our Special Gifts Fund and an unrestricted contribution to the Annual Campaign of UJA-Federation of New York. Our Special Gifts Fund, which the JCF Board established in 1999, gives us the opportunity to support vital services and programs identified by UJA-Federation of New York. To date, the Special Gifts Fund has awarded more than $8 million to over a dozen nonprofits, including Jewish community centers on Long Island, Staten Island, Brooklyn and Manhattan, the Plaza Jewish Community Chapel and Ramapo for Children. And in their hours of need, we have provided emergency grants to Jewish communities in Argentina and Israel. In the past ten years, JCF has also made annual contributions of at least $2 million to UJA-Federation’s Annual Campaign. As one of the campaign’s largest donors, we support UJA-Federation’s extensive network of human-service, educational and community-building agencies and programs, including Connect to Care, which helps individuals and families impacted by the recession. Since its inception in May 2009, Connect to Care has helped nearly 30,000 people access employment, career, debt and financial counseling, legal assistance and spiritual care. We feel privileged not only to make a difference, but also to serve as the stewards of your inspiring philanthropy. We hope that your charitable-giving experience is enhanced by our services—and by the knowledge that JCF shares your profound commitment to meeting our community’s needs effectively and purposefully. Thank you for your enduring support and generosity. David A. Tanner Susan F.

  • The Rosh Chodesh Planner Was Designed to Serve As a Resource for Shluchos When Planning Women's Programs. Many Years Ago, When
    בס"ד PREFACE The Rosh Chodesh Planner was designed to serve as a resource for shluchos when planning women’s programs. Many years ago, when one of the first shluchim arrived in Pittsburgh, PA, prepared to combat the assimilation of America through hafotzas hamayonos, one of the directives of the Rebbe to the shlucha was that it did not suffice for her to only become involved in her husband’s endeavors, but that she should become involved in her own areas of activities as well. Throughout the years of his nesiyus, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Nesi Dorenu, appreciated and valued the influential role the woman plays as the akeres habayis. This is evident in the many sichos which the Rebbe dedicated specifically to Jewish women and girls worldwide. Involved women are catalysts for involved families and involved communities. Shluchos, therefore, have always dedicated themselves towards reaching a broad spectrum of Jewish women from many affiliations, professions and interests. Programs become educational vehicles, provide networking and outreach opportunities for the participants, and draw them closer in their unified quest for a better and more meaningful tomorrow. Many shluchos have incorporated a schedule of gathering on a monthly basis. Brochures are mailed out at the onset of the year containing the year’s schedule at a glance. Any major event(s) are incorporated as well. This system offers the community an organized and well-planned view of the year’s events. It lets them know what to expect and gives them the ability to plan ahead. In the z’chus of all the positive accomplishments that have been and are continuously generated from women’s programs, may we be worthy of the immediate and complete Geulah.

  • Curbing Short-Termism in Corporate America: Focus on Executive Compensation Robert C
    May 2014 Curbing Short-Termism in Corporate America: Focus on Executive Compensation Robert C. Pozen INTRODUCTION hort-termism—defined as judging company performance over a brief time period—has recently come under a barrage of criticisms from multiple sources— Sbusiness groups, think tanks, academics and lawyers.1 The emphasis on short- termism is said to be destructive to American businesses—discouraging corporate executives from investing in long-term projects and sustainable growth, while en- couraging them to inflate reports of quarterly earnings. Robert C. Pozen is a nonresident fellow The critics of short-termism argue that rapid trading by shareholders of public with Economic Studies companies is heavily pressuring company executives to focus on current earnings at Brookings and is rather than long-term performance.
