Jewish Clevelanders over 50:
PACT! with the Jewish Federation
of Cleveland's new volunteer
initiative for Baby Boomers. Join
us to celebrate at the "Making
an IMPACT! Launch Event" on
Thursday, Jan. 7, at 7 pm, at the
Jewish Federation of Cleveland's
Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel
Building (25701 Science Park
Drive, Cleveland).
Making Powerful Active
Contributions Together,"
is an initiative of the
Federation's Jewish
Volunteer Network, a
one-stop shop for con-
necting Jewish Cleve-
landers to meaningful
and rewarding volunteer
experiences in Cleveland
and beyond.
Population Study found
that nearly one-third
of Jewish people in
Cleveland were born
between 1946-1964.
With the realization that
a significant segment
of the Jewish commu-
nity were part of the
Baby Boomer era, the
Federation reached out
to community members
within this demographic
to learn more about their needs
and aspirations for the next step
in their lives. The focus group
over 50 are looking to
help the community,
connect with like-minded
individuals through social
programming, use their
professional skills and tal-
ents to aid others in need,
learn new skills through
workshops and certifica-
tion courses, and travel
to do good for others
outside of Cleveland.
Initiative said, "As a Baby
Boomer, I see tremen-
dous value in coming
together with others who
are of similar age and
share similar interests.
Through IMPACT! we
can connect with one
another and make mean-
ingful contributions in
our Jewish and general
communities through
important hands-on
good is limitless."
speaker Dick Goldberg, former
National Director of Coming of
Age, an initiative that engages
adults over 50 to explore their
futures, promote connections,
and build stronger commu-
nities through volunteering.
The evening will also include
a panel discussion with Jewish
Clevelanders Mindy Davidson of
Solon, Ann Freimuth of Pepper
Pike, and Zachary Paris of Shaker
