Great Man - Great Leader

Our community continues to respond! I am pleased to report that as of today, the Jewish Federation’s Annual Campaign has already raised over $2.3 million (in only 70 days)!

The Year 79811

Next week, as most of you know, features an anomaly for American Jews – The first day of Hanukkah coincides with Thanksgiving on November 28 (meaning the first eve of Hanukkah is actually the night before Thanksgiving). 

Even MORE Happy Campers

The Jewish Federation of Greater Portland’s Annual Campaign has raised over $2 million in just 45 days!

I Heard it Through the GrapeVine

I am pleased to report that our Annual Campaign continues to move forward. We have raised in excess of $1.6 million and continue our push to “speed up” our campaign.

Spring Forward

Early Sunday morning will be, once again, the transition to Pacific Standard Time. It is when we roll our clocks back an hour and get an extra hour of sleep.
