IT’S WHAT

BEING JEWISH FEELS LIKEFEELS LIKEFEELS LIKEFEELS LIKE .

Building community and helping to make the world a better place is what we do every day. For us, it’s what being Jewish feels like.

It’s a promise that social services and community organizations will remain strong and active for all of us. And for you.

It’s an opportunity to be part of a caring community that gives back. And it’s an opportunity to foster and celebrate Jewish identity for future generations.

VOLUNTEER. DONATE. MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

This Annual Report of the Savannah Jewish Federation highlights its activities and community involvement over the last twelve months. It is worthy of your reading and examination. You are what makes the Savannah Jewish Federation what it is and thus your understanding of its mission and accomplishments is critically impor-tant. Knowledge is truly power. But, behind the day to day activities, there is a larger consideration - a factor that tells the story of who we are and why we exist. We live in an ever changing world that is becoming smaller and smaller. The headlines today on matters of Jewish concern regarding Israel, the Middle East, Europe and the United States were practically non-existent one year ago. These are challenges that our Federation has sought to keep the community updated for we cannot ig-nore any effort, anywhere, that rings the bell of his-tory. Savannah responded sincerely and meaningfully to the Stop The Sirens campaign of the Jewish Federations of North America. As evidenced by the Community Soli-darity Rally SJF hosted in August, the support for Israel among us runs deep and powerful. While the headlines may be less as I write this message, the needs of Israel have not diminished. The continuing commitment to Is-rael of the Savannah Jewish Federation and other federa-tions around the country must be a constant and must be vigilant. With the outstanding leadership of Campaign Chair Allan Ratner and his able team and many solicitors, the annual Federation campaign surpassed $ 1,000,000.00 in pledges. It is a truly outstanding effort and one that evi-dences the binding element of a Federation. It is a com-bined effort of many people to raise funds for worthy causes, to sustain organizations and to make a difference in the lives of our people. Whether it is a large allocation or a small grant, every dollar is important, every dollar is an investment, every dollar helps write a chapter in our history. That is why your support of our Annual Cam-paign is so very vital. But beyond all of the above, the story of Federation and why we exist is people. People we know. People we do not know. People in Savannah. People in other parts of the Jewish world. Please allow me to elaborate. Members of our community benefit in unlimited ways through Jewish Family Services. This is a program of SJF that provides a variety of supportive social and finan-cial services in a respectful and meaningful way. It is a program that has seen an increase with the demographics indicating an even greater need in the future.

SJF, through the use of funds established by generous do-nors, encourages and provides a path for our young people to have Jewish experiences, both in this country and in Israel. These experiences are so important in helping build future generations of Jewish commitment and involvement. Programs of Holocaust observances, film, music and speak-ers help our community maintain its connections with our history, our culture and with each other - the most important connection we have. All of these events remind us that we must endeavor every day to honor our past, preserve our pre-sent and guarantee our future. The Savannah Jewish Federation is also looking to the fu-ture. There is a new emphasis on connecting with new gen-erations through Young Jewish Savannah. There are plans for initiatives to cultivate and encourage leadership develop-ment throughout the community. We are constantly examin-ing new ideas for social services that can benefit those among us in need, however temporary. We are very fortunate to have a staff, led by Adam Solender, that understands the importance and value of our Federa-tion. Each person works tirelessly every day to meet the high expectations that we set for ourselves and help make our community the best it can be. There are never enough thanks to Adam, Cheryl, Vicky, Sonya, Charlene, Jennifer, Justin (and crew) and Jamie. Finally, there is you. Every member of our community is a resource that we value, appreciate and respect. You are the reason SJF exists. You are the reason for confidence in the future of our Jewish Community. And, at the end of the day, it is your support that provides the energy for the Savannah Jewish Federation. On behalf of the Officers, Board of Governors and Staff, we thank you.

Dear Friends,

We are pleased to present this 2014 Annual Report for the Savannah Jewish Federation. Through some very great challenges, our Community Campaign broke the $1M mark for the first time in three years...it was a testament to the leadership of Allan Ratner, Harvey Lebos, Joel Greenberg, Bunny Cohen Montag, and Nancy Rosenthal. They would-n’t take “no for an answer.”

Our Annual Campaign is the engine that allows us to impact the lives of thousands of members of the Jewish community throughout the Coastal Empire, in Israel, and around the world. With the support of our endowment funds, Federa-tion allocated an additional $690,000+ to other worthwhile causes in Savannah, Israel and throughout the world.

Our Budget and Allocations process works tirelessly to en-sure that your generous donations are effective and applied where they are needed most to support Jews and Jewish organizations. The committee was one of the largest in re-cent memory with 32 members of the community commit-ting to the process. Not only one of the largest groups, it was the most diverse possible and represented each and every segment of the Savannah Jewish community.

Thanks to your generosity, we were very proud to have been able to fund Hillel and BBYO, Birthright Israel (over 100 Savannahians have been able to travel to Israel over the past 13 years), and provide funding to Shalom School. This was our second year of providing direct grants to overseas beneficiaries who are doing essential work throughout the world on our behalf. Beneficiaries were nominated by com-munity members who had an experience with the organiza-tion including Meshi Children’s Rehabilitation Center, Ayalim Association, Nalag’at Art Center, Yeadim School, Magan David Odom, the Atlit Ma’apalim Camp and Ein Prat Academy (Israel), Guantanamo Jewish Center and Communidad Hebrea Hatikva (Cuba), JDC Warsaw JCC (Poland), JDC Baby Help (Argentina), JDC Ukraine Relief and WUPJ Ukraine Relief, AJWS (Latin America), and the Survivor Project. This funding plus our annual support of JDC and JAFI is our commitment to worldwide Jewry

While “breaking” one million dollars is a strong result for a small community, we still have incredible opportunity. We continually make changes that will help us serve the Jewish community in a responsible, positive manner to achieve our objectives of connecting Jewish lives, assisting the vulner-able, and strengthening community.

Your Federation continues to provide support for those in need today and for innovative programs that work to ensure a vibrant Jewish community in the future.

Thanks to generous donors and dedicated volunteers, we continue to hear positive responses to our various commu-nity programs. Ongoing activities include our annual Yom Hashoah observance, Savannah Jewish Film Festival, Israel advocacy, PJ Library, weekly eNews and the Savannah

Adam M. Solender Executive Director

Jewish News.

The demands on our Jewish Family Services continues to grow (as does our community) in size of needs and complex-ity. While our community shows great generosity and many of us help others “quietly,” there are many among us who are receiving assistance and case management, rental/utility sub-sidy, food cards, and transportation. It is done as efficiently and effectively as possible. We will continue to focus on pro-viding for those in our community in need.

In the midst of the year, our community “stood tall” in an-swering the immediate needs of Jews in peril in Ukraine with thousands of dollars raised for immediate security needs. And our response to provide support for brethren in Israel was su-perb. Joining together with URJ, USCJ, World ORT, JAFI and JDC, Jewish Federations of NA was able to raise over $30M to assist those affected by terror in the Stop the Sirens campaign. Almost $70,000 of additional funding was raised.

We recognize and honor the thousands of hours contributed to our organization by our board members, committee chairs and members, fund-raising and program volunteers. It is gratifying to know that you continue to value and support the work we do and that the future of our Jewish community is important to so many.

There are many challenges facing our community in the years ahead, including concerns about Jewish identity, support of Israel and supporting vulnerable Jewish populations here in Savannah and across the globe. We are committed to continu-ing our work to build a strong, vibrant Jewish community and target resources where they can be the most effective.

This Annual Report is but a snapshot of the organization’s financial condition. There is so much behind the numbers and we’d like to share it with you. Come, be a part of our holy work-Volunteer. Donate. Make a Difference Today!

JEWISH COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF SAVANNAH

As my ancestors planted for me

so do I plant for those who will come after me.

The Jewish Community Foundation of Savannah (the Foundation) is dedicated to creating permanent resources to meet the challenges and needs of the Savannah Jewish community, connecting yesterday, today and tomorrow. Individuals and family donors work in partnership with the Foundation to enhance Jewish community life and education.

The Foundation is fortunate to be invested in The Investment Fund for Foundations (TIFF) . TIFF is a cooperative-style investment organization founded by a nationwide network of foundations whose mission is

• To seek to enhance the investment returns of non-profit organizations.

• To reduce the investment and administrative expenses of non-profit organizations.

• To broaden the universe of investment choices available to non-profit organizations.

• To assist non-profit organizations in deploying their assets in a manner that will support charitable expenditures while preserving the purchasing power of their assets. The TIFF Multi-Asset Fund seeks to produce an annualized real return of 5% or more over long-term holding periods. In pursuit of this aim the fund employs a globally diversified portfolio. The Fund is a highly blended combination of assets in-cluding US Stocks, T-Bills, High Yield Bonds, Inflation Hedges (i.e. REITs and commodities), and Deflation Hedges (Conventional bonds). In addition to TIFF, JCFS also maintains modest investments in funds run by Chatham Capital (Savannah) and Caldwell & Orkin. Each of these funds has a different investment philosophy and provides donors with the opportunity to have their funds invested in a way that reflect their investment philosophy (if so desired).
