Hello, my name is Larry Mack. I’ve been a campaigner for a long time. It’s really important to me. Sometimes there are no words for how it makes me feel – to know that I can help.

My name is Jordan Berkowitz. I am a campaigner. I am also a parent. I notice the police presence at my children’s Jewish day schools during drop off.

Shalom! My name is Kyla Epstein Schneider. I volunteer with the Federation because I believe we are all in this together. And, through Federation, we can plan for our community’s future. We can be prepared.

A very special thanks our Campaign Closing speakers including Kyla Epstein Schneider, Jordan Berkowitz, and Larry Mack, who shared their personal, powerful stories of why they give and why they volunteer.

Thank you Dan Zelman, 2015 & 2016 General Campaign Chair, for inspiring us to reach new heights!
