The Campaign for Our Jewish Future

The campaign still needs you

The official Campaign Closing Event was held in December, at which point we announced our projected campaign total of $66 million. However, as you know, the campaign is never really over until we have contacted all of our donors. Although UJA Federation staff have been working tirelessly since December making calls every day at Staff Telethons, there are still 4700 outstanding potential donors to be contacted and we need your help.
There are several ways to help, but none better than volunteering for a telethon shift (see next story for details). If you would like to take some donor cards to call at home or at UJA Federation, please contact Fern Goldstein. Any help is appreciated. Remember... if not now, when?

 

Warm up your fingers by dialing

It’s awfully cold outside… but it's warm and cozy inside the Lipa Green Building. By making just one call to one donor, you can warm the lives of thousands of Jews in need in Toronto and in Israel. Every gift you get and every dollar you raise will make a difference. Please note that this telethon has new shift times and it would mean so much to so many if you signed up for just one shift. Bring your friends, family and coworkers and help us reach all of the potential donors that haven't yet been contacted. Delicious meals, ranging from Chinese food to deli, will be provided with every shift (kashruth observed). Please click HERE to sign up.
