CKJA PRESIDENT GLORIA KATZ
SENDS GREETINGS

Summer is almost over, the pace of
life quickens and a new year is about
to begin in the Jewish calendar.

5‘. Rosh Hashonah is both a time for re—

\, iection and a time for new beginnings.
It was a few days before Erev Rosh
Hashonah in September of I976 that the
directors of the Jewish Community Asso-
ciation joined the leadership of the
Central Kentucky United Jewish Appeal to
approve the Constitution and By-Laws of
the newly created CENTRAL KENTUCKY

JEWISH ASSOCIATION.
These fourteen dedicated members of

our Jewish community became the nucleus
of CKJA's first board of directors.
They pledged -— that Rosh Hashonah
season -- to devote their time and
efforts to establishing an organization
that Would foster unity and cohesion
in our Jewish community by improving
the quality of Jewish life through
recreational, social and cultural acti-
vities and community services.
Most of these people are still
actively involved in CKJA today.
They have been joined by dozens of you,
who over the past nine years, have
freely given of your time and talents
5. help make this organization grow
and succeed.

 

And it is to you, the members of CKJA,
that I extend our grateful appreciation
and this special wish for the new year:

May you have a yeah bZeAAed wtth

OPERA‘i‘lON MOSES FUND RAISING
TOPS $60 MILLiON GOAL ‘.

As a result of extraordinary nationwide
community efforts, the initial fund raising
on behalf of new Ethiopian immigrants to
Israel totals more than $62.5 million in
pledges and community guarantees, with over
3A7 million already received in cash.

To maintain the momentum of achievement
that UJA/Federation Campaigns have had a
part in establishing, dramatically in-
creased campaign funds are required to sup-
port vital programs in four areas:

HOMECOMING and HOME MAKING

 

During the 1986 Campaign, Israel will
enter the second phase of helping recently
arrived EthiOpian Jews become part of is-
raeli society. They will be moving from
the shelter of absorption centers to fur-
nished apartments and making the transi—
tion from initial adjustment to the more
difficult process of acculturation, job
retraining and individual placement.

The process will take about 18 months,
almost a year longer than the absorption
of immigrants from other countries.

At present, absorption centers are full.
Hotels, hostels and convalescent homes have
been pressed into service, with rents far
higher than costs at Jewish Agency-owned
centers. Permanent housing is another
problem. Because Ethiopian Jews need jobs
and supportive services, they must live
near established centers of population,
precisely the areas where housing is in
short supply. Ethiopian families are
smaller than the Agency expected, and more
individual apartments must be found for
them.

in addition, many more Ethiopian child-
ren than anticipated have reached Israel
without their parents. There are currently
1,500 Ethiopian children studying in 25
Youth Aliyah institutions. By the end of
July, 1985, Youth Aliyah estimates that
this number will have risen to 2,000.

The 1985/86 Jewish Agency budget calls
for an extra $A5 million to be spent on
the absorption of Ethiopian Jews, another
$15 million for their vocational training
and $9 million more for their accommodation
and education in Youth Aliyah villages.

 

This huge expenditure must be financed
through increased income derived from fund
raising and cash collection in Jewish com-
munities abroad, and through a painful $8
million cut in other Jewish Agency programs.

The budget of the immigration and Absorp-
tion Department — excluding resources allo-
cated for Ethiopians — will drop from $53
million to $50 million for 1985/86. All
programs have been trimmed by 10 to 20%,
with social services and counseling being
reduced at a time when new immigrants need
more advice than ever on coping with Israel's
economy.

THE NEEDS OF THE YOUNG

 

Youth Aliyah serves about 18,000 young—
sters, almost all of them Israelis from
disadvantaged backgrounds. The $2 million
eliminated from Youth Aliyah‘s regular bud-
get means that Youth Aliyah will admit some
1,600 fewer new students this year than it
hoped to accomodate.

Most of Youth Aliyah's students need v0v
cational education, but the program's trai.’
ing equipment is quickly becoming obsolete.
New investments are required to give Youth
Aliyah students access to high-tech careers,
thus ensuring an economic future for them
and for the nation.

SETTLING THE LAND

The budget for the Rural Settlement
Department fell to $67 million from $70
million last year and $73 million two years
ago. Development plans had called for es-
tablishing seven rural communities in
1985/86.

Settlements were planned for the Galilee
to strengthen a regional network of small
communities projected as the hub of Israeli
high-tech production. And farming villages
were mapped out in the Negev and Arava to
continue the redemption of arid soil through
agro-technology and drip irrigation.

Now, only four settlements can be started:
two in the Galilee and two in the Arava, at
a cost of $3 million. Other priorities
include: working with 12 of the 50 economi—
cally distressed mozshavim closest to bank—.;
ruptcy, and bringing another 1h settlements
to the point where they will need no further

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS

 

TWO YOUNG WOMEN REPRESENT JEWISH COMMUNITY
AT FIRST ”ANYTOWN”

Tammy Fitzpatrick and Michelle Mayer
were the recipients of leadership awards
from CKJA which enabled them to attend
“Anytown”, a one—week camp retreat spon-
sored jointly by the Bluegrass and Louis-
ville Chapters of the National Conference
of Christians and Jews.

The purpose of the camp was to bring
together high school students of all re-
ligious, ethnic and cultural backgrounds
in an intimate setting to examine their
similarities and differences.

Quoting from a letter Tammy wrote to
the Herald-Leader, “Angtown it a human ae-
tattona and teadenahtp camp. Foa one week,

gethen at one. We bang togethen, danced

Both Tammy, daughter of Ruth 8 Joe
Fitzpatrick, and Michelle, daughter of

to have played a part in supporting this

HOPE THROUGH NEIGHBORHOOD RENEWAL

 

The fact that Project Renewal's budget
remains at $48 million for 1985/86, while
other departments have suffered cutbacks,
testifies to the high priority Israel gives
this partnership program to close its
social gap. Each neighborhood has indivi-
dual needs, for which its twinned community
abroad is responsible. While most of the
twinning relationships are active and on-
schedule in their fund raising, in a few
others there is a shortage of cash. Some
neighborhoods are approaching the fourth or
fifth year of their involvement in Project
Renewal, yet still lack basic physical fa-
cilities to implement already planned
social programs. We must find a way to
strengthen the resources of individual
and community development in every Project
Renewal neighborhood.

Q OR ISRAEL

At 37, with a population gathered from
120 nations, Israel is still a pioneering,
developing country. Vision, energy, in—
telligence and substantial resources have
revived a wasteland, created over 500 rural
communities and resettled almost two mil-
lion refugees. Yet the work is not com-
plete.

Large stretches remain to be settled in
the Galilee and the Negev/Arava. And vast
opportunities exist to strengthen the fa—
bric of Israel's society and promote its
progress.

From the beginning, through funds
transmitted to the United Israel Appeal/
Jewish Agency for Israel, our UJA/Federa-
tion Campaign has been part of the pio-
neering process. Today, as Israel writes
new chapters in social, economic and
technological development, our responsi-
bilities and challenges are greater than
ever.

 

EOR .33 COUNTRIQ ARQ.UND-T§E-:IELR_LD,

For more than 70 years, the American
Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, a
UJA/Federation Campaign beneficiary, has
been taking care of Jews worldwide when—
ever they are in trouble and wherever they
are in need.

Today, the JDC operates in 33 nations,
with primary emphasis on Israel, which re-
ceives more than 30% of the budget, and in
Eastern European and Moslem lands where
large numbers of Jews live in poverty.
These are often ”remnant“ communities -—
with many elderly left behind by the more
able and the more mobile. The human need
in these areas is very great. In Romania,
for example, where 10,000 Jews receive
food, clothing and winter fuel packages,
JDC assistance could mean the difference
between life and death.

In Israel, JDC‘s involvement with the
community center movement and community
schools is a creative and effective res-
ponse to the continuing economic and cul-
tural gap. Through the community school
program, school facilities are used to
give residents a chance to enrich their
lives with a variety of classes and social
programs. JDC-sponsored programs also
serve the elderly and play an important
role in encouraging voluntarism in Israeli
society.

JDC's budget for 1985 is $h9.5 million.

 

A GROWING COMMUNITY IN CENTRAL KY

CKJA continues to coordinate the local
fund raising campaign, and with a budget of
$58,000 sponsors a broad spectrum of acti-
vities for the local Jewish community.

This includes the Community Relations Com-
mittee which works with local schools, pro-
motes the cause of oppressed Jews, and
serves as a liaison with the general com-
munity.

Emergency loans, camp scholarships and
grants for Israel programs are among the
resources offered by the Social Services
Committee.

The Community Activities Committee's
emphasis is on social and cultural programs,
such as Pre—school Holiday parties, Forum
Series and Israel Independence Day Celebra-

 

tions.

The CKJA Board recently accepted its
first endowment gift - a fund established
by Harry Rosenberg and his family in me-
mory of Efltzabeth Robenbehg. The income
from the fund will be used to establish an
annual memorial lecture, as part of the
CKJA Forum Series.

Meetings and discussions with the
Rosenberg family have resulted in an ex-
citing first in the Central Kentucky Jewish
community. The memorial lectures will deal
with themes related to the Jewish family
and Jewish women in particular.

Friends and family of Betty Rosenberg
may make contributions to this fund sepa-
rate and apart from regular pledges to the
annual CKJA/UJA Campaign.

Gloria Katz, CKJA President, has
appointed immediate past president Jack
Miller as chairman of an ad hoc Endowment
Committee. Serving with Miller on the
committee are: Harold Baker, Erle Levy,
Ken Mayer, Tomas Milch and Arthur Salomon.

This committee is charged with estab-
lishing initial guidelines for a CKJA
endowment program.

At their first meeting the committee
determined that there is a need for educa-
tion of the entire Jewish community about
the role of endowments and trusts in help-
ing to assure the continuity of the Jewish
community in the years to come. The com—
mittee plans to use expert consultants
from nearby communities to assist in for-
mulating an endowment program. They will
also be planning specific events that
would inform the whole Jewish community
about the significance of including the
Jewish organization(s) of their choice in
estate planning.

CKJA BOARD TO PARTICIPATE IN WORKSHOP

Jan Rothschild, Council of Jewish
Federations community consultant and former
associate director of the Louisville Feder—
ation, will meet with the CKJA Board on
Sunday, September 22, 1985.

There will be two main themes of the
workshop: an orientation to the relation—
ship between CJF and local Federations, and
examination of other small Jewish communiv
ties in order to draw a comparison with
Lexington.
