A great deal of who I am today, is because of who she was.

In 1854, Jewish Family Service (JFS) was the first charity to be established in the city. Today, over 160 years later, we are proud to offer “a family of services” to more than 100,000 individuals every year.

Through our programs and services, we strive to meet the challenges of poverty, hunger, domestic violence, mental illness, families in crisis, disabilities, and aging with dignity. This compassion grows out of deeply rooted Jewish values – “tikkun olam,” or healing the world, which is a central tenet of Judaism.

JFS welcomes and serves people of all ages, ethnicities, and religions. Our professional staff and dedicated volunteers share a passionate commitment to enriching and improving the lives of every member of the community.

about JFS

about this reportAt JFS, we are volunteers, partners, donors and friends who all believe in one thing – we can change things – and we are going to do it as a family. This is the heart of JFS: people touching people, reaching out to nurture lives filled with dignity, meaning, and joy. We are proud that 2015 marks our 161st year of service to the Los Angeles community.

Throughout this report, we have included images of some of our most dedicated family members. We asked those we photographed to talk to us about why JFS is important to them. Some of them brought objects to be photographed that represent their personal connection to our organization. We hope you will be as inspired by their stories as we are.

JFS offers our sincere thanks to all of our most generous supporters whose names are listed in the pages of this report.

This is a list of financial donations only, made between July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015. These listings do not include gifts to our Capital and Endowment Campaign. Every effort has been made to ensure proper recognition; we apologize for any errors.

We would also like to gratefully acknowledge the thousands of individuals who have given gifts up to $500, donors of goods and services, those who wish to remain anonymous, those who give of their time, and others who support our work whose names do not appear in this report. In addition, we would like to thank our very talented artist-friends, Adam Moran, photographer, and Jessica Accamando, graphic designer, for helping us produce this piece.

Jewish Family Service may have been founded in 1854, but our roots extend even further into our collective past—connecting each of us to one another and to the enduring spirit of generosity itself. Each year, these roots have offered sustenance and support to more than 100,000 Los Angeles residents. As the city’s first charity, we embrace and strengthen people of every race, religion, creed, and economic status. With the help of thousands of passionate donors, volunteers and professional staff, we have dedicated our hearts and hard work to feeding families in need, providing the elderly with compassionate care to age safely in place, empowering survivors of abuse, treating mental illness, and offering focus, direction, and counseling for at-risk children and their families.

JFS remains dedicated in its commitment to providing a safety net for children and adults; serving everyone who comes through our doors with the dignity and respect they deserve. We are deeply grateful to our board members, volunteers, staff, donors, community partners and friends of JFS who enable us to make a tangible difference in people’s lives each day. As a new year begins, we thank you for helping us respond to the needs of our community. With your generous support, we renew our commitment to strengthen the lives of individuals and families in need. We cannot do it without you.

If you or someone you know needs our help, please call us at (877) ASK-4JFS, or visit our website, www.jfsla.org. We’ve responded since 1854, and it’s something we’ll continue to do in the years ahead.

Family is the cornerstone of our lives. Family gives us comfort, security, a sense of belonging and love which creates healthy and compassionate human beings who then help to build healthy communities and society. Family is also the key to Jewish life and to the sustenance of our faith and our people over time. JFS plays a key role in helping to build healthy individuals, healthy families, and a healthy society. Each generation of our large family is very proud to support JFS.

The Kiddush cup I have in my hands is from my grandfather. This keepsake is the only Jewish item passed down to me from when he escaped the ghettos in Warsaw during WWII. Like JFS, it serves as a reminder to honor my heritage, my family, my commitment to tikkun olam, and the sacri�ces made that I may have the freedom and opportunities I often take for granted as an American Jew.

This book I bought in Jerusalem is very important to me, it’s not only religion, it is philosophy. It is a guide through life. It shows you that life is sometimes very cruel but you can reshape yourself and get out of the troubles you are in. I have found profound help from reading the lessons in this book and have found that kind of help and support at Freda Mohr. I am very grateful for the center and from the very �rst time I came here, I felt at home.

Graciela Marcovici JFS { Freda Mohr Multipurpose Center Volunteer

The “keepsake” that I brought was the Dora and Charles Mesnick plaque that I received in 2010 for Excellence in Senior Programming. This award is especially meaningful to me because it validates all of the work that that I do on behalf of older adults in the community. Working with seniors is my passion as it exempli�es my personal ethics and values which are being kind and compassionate towards others.

Since early childhood, my life has been touched by the steadfast dedication of an agency like JFS. My mother, whose picture Ethan is holding, was widowed at 34 with two young children, my 4 yr. old sister and me of 22 months. As we were growing up, I remember my mother going ‘some place’ and coming home with food and clothing for our family. I am holding my mother’s treasured, threadbare purse, in which she always kept a nickel, stressing to us in Yiddish, that having a nickel to her name in that purse symbolized the fact that “God will never forget us”. These memories of my remarkable, heroic mother and the Jewish agency that was there for us have stayed with me all these years, enforcing my belief in, and dedication to, Jewish Family Service of Los Angeles.

Family is central to our lives. The “A” team are the 19 members of our immediate family. The menorah pictured with us was a wedding present 57 years ago from Dick’s Aunt Eve, a remarkable woman who in her time was the glue that kept the family together. Designed by Ludwig Wolpert, the menorah is the central piece in our collection of Chanukah menorahs. It reminds us of all the family gatherings with our children and grandchildren and of our commitment to the celebration of Jewish life.

On Wednesday, January 28th, JFS dedicated their Family Violence Project Counseling Center Conference Room in Sherman Oaks to the memory of Nina C. Leibman. The JFS { Family Violence Project provides help and counseling to survivors of domestic violence and their children. Along with a 24-hour crisis hotline, the Family Violence Project maintains emergency shelters, transitional housing, comprehensive counseling and an education and prevention outreach program.

In March, Marc and Julie Platt lead a meaningful discussion about their experiences with philanthropy as well as choices and causes they championed at the 3rd Annual JFS { Young Leader’s Leadership Development Forum.

A Day of Hope was held on Sunday, March 15th at CBS Television Studios and raised over $250,000. The day was filled with food, fun, and featured a live musical performance by John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting. Hosted by: Nina Tassler, Debby Barak & David Stapf and chaired by Tami Stapf & Shana Passman.

On Monday, March 23rd a group of JFS’ most generous donors gathered at the home of Shana and Don Passman for a Gala Pre-Event. Those who attended enjoyed a performance by New York City’s Salome Chamber Orchestra, a classical string ensemble as well as a light supper. A special presentation was made at the event to Zev Yaroslavsky, Los Angeles County Supervisor (Ret.) for his outstanding support of our agency.

NBC4 Southern California’s Weathercaster and Stand-Up Comic Fritz Coleman entertained a big crowd on Sunday, May 17, 2015 at Shomrei Torah Synagogue to raise money for JFS services.

On Thursday, May 21st, over 600 community members gathered at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills to honor Eileen and Harold Brown with the Anita and Stanley Hirsh Award and Mindy and Gene Stein with the Spirit of Humanity Award, as well as Congressman Henry Waxman (RET) with a special recognition award at the 22nd Annual JFS { Gala. This was our most successful fundraising event to date, raising over $1.2M dollars for the agency.

There was a great turnout at the Mid City West Neighborhood Council Planning & Land Use Committee meeting on Tuesday, May 19th to discuss the JFS { Lois and Richard Gunther Center. Participants made wonderful presentations to the committee and reiterated the importance of the project for the community.

JFS was happy to “root for the home team” on June 21st at Dodger Stadium, where JFS { SOVA was the lucky recipient of on-air recognition, receiving a check for $25,000 from Daniel’s Jewelers at a pre-game presentation. Stephanie and Howard Sherwood presented the check for $25,000 to Debby Barak, JFS Board Chair, and Paul Castro, JFS President and CEO.

On July 19th, JFS hosted its annual Tools for School Community Day, which offers children the tools they need to feel prepared, motivated and proud to attend school. The event provided over 250 students with backpacks, school supplies, new clothing, and shoes. This year’s event was held in partnership with JFS { Young Leaders and The National Council of Jewish Women, Los Angeles.

JFS enjoyed a good laugh for a good cause on November 3rd at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood. This year’s Laughing Matters, featuring comedian Finesse Mitchell and Emmy-nominated comedian Howie Mandel, raised over $80,000 for services benefitting survivors of domestic violence and their families. Special thanks to our terrific co-chairs Wendy Silver and Linda Levine.

On November 20th, JFS { SOVA distributed over 35,000 pounds of food to families in need for Thanksgiving. That amount equals enough food for over 10,000 people to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

For the 20th consecutive year, the JFS { Adopt A Family program is making an impact in the lives of hundreds of families in Los Angeles. Many of our generous donors anonymously “adopted” a family in need, providing them with basic necessities and small gifts for the December holiday season.

Each fall, Tools for School provides hundreds of kids in the LA area with new clothing and backpacks �lled with school supplies to build con�dence as they begin the next school year. Empowering our youth and paying it forward is what drives me to stay connected with JFS { Young Leaders.

Aleza Shapiro Co-Chair JFS { Young Leaders pictured on right

My keepsake is a talit that was handmade for me for my bat-mitzvah by my grandmother. She had each member of our family trace the outline of his or her hand. She then patched them together so that all of their hands would hold and support me — throughout my life and in my connection to Judaism. This ties to JFS as it reminds me of all of the helping hands, whether family or community, that serve and hold up those in need.
