JFM enhances life in the 

Jewish community and beyond 

Annual Report 2017 

In 2017, the Jewish Foundation of Manitoba awarded $1.4 million 

in grants to support important initiatives of Jewish organizations and organizations that 

serve Manitobans of all backgrounds. Here are just a few grant highlights from 2017.

BBG Week 

Empowering 

Teen Girls in 

the Community 

It was a busy week. It was an exciting week. 

Above all, it was an empowering week. 

For five days in May, BBG – the girls’ division of 

B’nai Brith Youth Organization (BBYO) – shone 

a light on community service, well-being, and 

Jewish identity. BBG Week was funded in large 

part by a $5,000 Women’s Endowment Fund grant 

from the Jewish Foundation of Manitoba. 

“The JFM has helped us achieve our goals for 

promoting teen leadership,” says Gayle Waxman, 

Executive Director of the Rady JCC, which 

oversees BBYO in Winnipeg. “BBG Week 

helped the girls see themselves in the 

context of our larger community. You can’t 

put a pricetag on that.” 

During BBG Week, the girls had a different 

program focus each day, including: mental health 

promotion; community service (with the girls 

making lunches for Main Street Project and 

writing letters to lone soldiers in Israel); and 

physical fitness. The signature event of the week 

was the Shabbat dinner where each girl was 

encouraged to bring a woman who has been a 

source of empowerment and guidance. 

“I brought my voice teacher and my sister 

brought our Mom,” says BBG Regional 

Board member Hannah Levit. “We sang, did 

Shabbat rituals, our whole Board spoke about 

empowerment, and we had a guest speaker 

about mental health. The grant from the Jewish 

Foundation was really important to us.”

Annual Report 2017

Diabetes Canada 

Informative. Intimate. 

Invaluable. 

There has long been a programming gap in Manitoba for 

people with type 1 diabetes who are aging out of pediatric 

care and youth diabetes programs. Thanks in part to a 

$4,500 Community Grant from the Jewish Foundation of 

Manitoba, Diabetes Canada is closing the gap with a pilot 

project called Type One Networking and Education of 

Diabetes Program, or T-ONE-D for short. 

As members of the group have grown closer together, the 

environment has allowed for conversation about more 

personal and intimate issues like alcohol consumption, 

sex, and how to navigate university exams while 

managing diabetes. 

“We’ve heard from participants that the most amazing 

part of this is knowing they aren’t alone,” adds 

Kowalchuk, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 

20. “Sometimes we have trouble getting the group to end. 

We’ve been kicked out of venues. 

“We’re grateful for the Jewish Foundation’s support,” she 

adds. “This program is making a difference in people’s 

lives and we hope to sustain it.” 

Launched in March 2017, the program brings young adults 

together every second month for a two-and-a-half-hour 

meeting. Participants range in age from 17 to 30. 

“The first hour is about health promotion and diabetes 

education,” says Carly Kowalchuk, Community 

Engagement Coordinator with Diabetes Canada. “The rest 

of the evening is about networking and open discussion. 

People really value the program, especially those people 

who were diagnosed with type 1 in their 20s.” 

Sage House 


6 

Restoring a Vital Service 

Sage House – a cornerstone program of Mount Carmel 

Clinic – closed its doors in 2016, leaving the clinic with 

the challenge of continuing to serve women involved 

in the survival sex trade. Located at 422 Dufferin Ave., 

Sage House had fallen into disrepair. It was no longer a 

safe facility. 

The Mount Carmel Clinic Foundation successfully 

raised the funds it needed to renovate the drop-in 

facility, including a $7,500 grant from the Women’s 

Endowment Fund at the Jewish Foundation of 

Manitoba. Sage House re-opened in July 2017. 

“We see up to 70 women a day who work in the sex 

trade to survive,” says Rebecca Blaikie, Senior Manager, 

Social Services, at Mount Carmel Clinic. “They come 

here to do laundry, take a shower, or have a nap. We 

offer free hot meals twice a week, a nurse practitioner, 

counselling, peer support groups, and more.” 

Blaikie and her colleagues are well aware of the Jewish 

community’s historical connection to Mount Carmel 

Clinic and are grateful that the Foundation is keeping 

that connection alive. 

“The support sends an important message to the 

women we serve,” says Blaikie. “It lets them know that 

people are thinking about them and care about them.” 

Without the Foundation grant, adds Blaikie, the funds 

would have had to be found elsewhere, possibly taken 

from a program budget. “We’re all stronger when we lift 

each other up,” she says.

United Way Winnipeg 

Greater than the Sum of its Parts 

Where can families turn when they need some extra 

support? In Winnipeg, about 35,000 people find 

comfort, community, and practical help through 24 

Family Resource Centres (FRCs) spread across the city. 

The centres are all independent non-profits that 

give families a boost with programs related to early 

childhood education, health, literacy, counselling, 

job-hunting, and much more. 

In 2015, United Way Winnipeg took a closer look at the 

centres and identified a huge opportunity to enhance 

their impact on the families they serve. 

“We learned that the FRCs were able to do a lot 

with a minimum of resources,” says Kathy Knudsen, 

Vice President, Community Impact, “and we saw 

an opportunity that with further funding support, 

the centres could become even more effective and 

impactful in helping to support and strengthen 

families.” 

And so, United Way Winnipeg embarked on a fiveyear, 

$7.5 million campaign for its “For Every Family” 

initiative. The provincial government agreed to match 

all funds raised up to $1.5 million a year. The Jewish 

Foundation of Manitoba stepped forward with a 

five-year $125,000 grant. 

The funds will allow smaller centres to expand their 

hours, promote networking and mentoring among 

FRCs, and create opportunities to enhance services. In 

the first year alone, the For Every Family initiative was 

able to add 20,000 hours of service. (Some centres were 

only open six hours a week!) 

“The Jewish Foundation’s grant is incredibly generous 

and we are grateful. It will help make the centres 

stronger together,” says Knudsen. “The grant speaks 

to the Foundation’s commitment to building a better 

community for everyone.”

Alon Weinberg 

Clicking with Community 

From playful to pensive, Alon Weinberg promises that 

his new Winnipeg Jewish podcast will engage listeners 

in a variety of ways. 

“My goal is to tell stories about Jewish life in Manitoba 

and give voice to a broad range of perspectives,” says 

Weinberg. “We have a rich fabric of Jewish life in 

Winnipeg and I want to celebrate that. We will talk 

about some hard issues, and we will have some fun.” 

The podcast – called The Wondering Jew: Musings 

and Tales from Red River – will be available for free 

download on iTunes and other podcast distribution 

sites in the fall. The podcast was made possible by a 

$6,500 Special Grant from the Jewish Foundation of 

Manitoba. Among other things, the grant allowed 

Weinberg to take a course at Red River College to 

enhance his skills. 

“I’m grateful that the Foundation encourages 

experimentation and cultural production through these 

grants,” says Weinberg, a CKUW radio host. 

So far, Weinberg has mapped out 25 episodes. He plans 

to invite summer camp alumni to reminisce; explore the 

history of the Hebrew Congregation of Winnipeg Beach; 

invite guests to talk about Jewish food; and talk to Jewish 

artists. On the heavier side, he will look at Judaism and 

atheism; have rabbis on the show to discuss questions of 

Jewish law and theology; look at gender issues in Jewish 

life, and much more. 

“The goal is to make this interesting, creative, and 

exciting – and to stimulate dialogue,” he says. 


Brock Corydon School 

Hebrew Bilingual Program: 

Seeing the Stars 

When the festival of Sukkot comes around in the fall, 

Brock Corydon School typically takes its Hebrew 

Bilingual Program students to visit sukkahs at various 

houses in the neighbourhood as well as the sukkahs 

at Congregation Shaarey Zedek and Adas Yeshurun 

Herzlia. 

Thanks to a $3,998 grant from the Jewish Foundation 

of Manitoba, Brock Corydon will be able to have its 

own sukkah starting in the fall of 2018. 

A sukkah is a booth built on the holiday to remind us of 

the temporary dwellings the Israelites built in the Sinai 

Desert on their trek from slavery in Egypt to freedom in 

the land of Israel. The roof is usually made of branches 

so that the stars can be seen at night. It is customary to 

eat in the sukkah and even sleep in it, and to decorate it 

with the symbols of the holiday. 

8 

“We do a lot of cross-cultural sharing and learning 

at our school,” says Principal Ara Morris. “With our 

own sukkah, we will be able to share the holiday with 

students in our English program and invite kids from 

other schools, too.” 

“We’ve been planning to build this for a while, but the 

grant from the Foundation is letting us do it right away, 

and we are grateful,” says Morris. “With our own sukkah, 

we will be able to expand what we do on the holiday and 

inspire the students to really take ownership of it.”

PJ Library 

“I want to open it 

now, now, now!” 

Three-year-old Immanuel Chimanovitch can barely 

contain his enthusiasm when his monthly PJ Library 

envelope arrives. In it, a free, age-appropriate book about 

Jewish culture, heritage, and values. 

“He can’t even read yet, but he loves the books,” says 

mom, Amanda Chimanovitch. “He sees the mail and says, 

‘I want to open it now, now, now!’” 

“The grant allows us to keep up with sending the books 

to as many families as possible,” says Florencia Katz, the 

Federation’s PJ Library Coordinator. “We know how 

important this program is for families. It promotes Jewish 

conversations and ignites Jewish thinking.” 

In Winnipeg, the PJ Library program includes 

special events for subscribing families. For Amanda 

Chimanovitch, a newcomer to Winnipeg from Brazil, PJ 

Library offers a special connection to the community and 

to Jewish knowledge. 

“I am happy because he is getting Jewish education,” she 

says of Immanuel, who also goes to programs at Chabad. 

“He knows everything about the holidays. He might be a 

future rabbi!” 

Immanuel is one of 840 Jewish children in Winnipeg 

between the ages of six months and eight years who 

receive free Jewish books. Half of the costs are covered by 

the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, which launched the 

international program in 2005. The other half is covered 

by the Jewish Federation of Winnipeg. In 2017, a $10,000 

Jewish Foundation of Manitoba Community Grant to the 

Federation helped to subsidize the program. 

Saul & Claribel Simkin Centre 

For the Safety of Residents 

According to Government of Canada research, up to 

30% of Canadian seniors experience at least one fall 

a year. While trying to reduce the number of falls is 

important, it is also critical to take steps to decrease the 

risk of injury when falls do happen. 

With a $6,440 Community Grant from the Jewish 

Foundation of Manitoba, the Saul and Claribel Simkin 

Centre recently purchased 50 Risk Manager Bedside 

Safety Mats. These are high-end mats designed to 

cushion the falls of residents getting in and out of bed. 

All 50 mats have been in use since they were purchased 

and the Centre plans to buy more. 

“We have residents who might forget that they have 

mobility issues and this affects how they get in and 

out of bed,” says Sara Reid, RN, Assistant Director of 

Care. “Having these mats at the bedside is like having 

a security blanket. We truly appreciate that the Jewish 

Foundation provided this grant.” 

Like many other personal care homes, the Simkin 

Centre strives to minimize the use of restraints in 

providing care to its residents. While bedside railings 

might seem like a more logical option to prevent bedrelated 

falls, many experts point out that people can 

become trapped in the rails and that a resident with 

impaired judgment might try to climb over. 

“When a resident falls, it can lead to reduced mobility, 

chronic pain, or worse,” says Reid. “These mats will 

reduce injuries and save lives.”

Women’s Endowment Fund Luncheon 

In April, celebrated author Margaret Trudeau was the keynote 

speaker at the Women’s Endowment Fund Luncheon at the 

RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg. More than 450 people 

– the largest crowd in the luncheon’s history – heard Mrs. 

Trudeau reflect on her life as the wife of Pierre Trudeau and 

on her mental health struggles. The luncheon, co-chaired by 

Jessica Cogan and Dr. Dianne Popeski, also honoured the 

memory of Irma Penn for her contributions to the community. 

‘An Evening Out’ 

In May, Elizabeth and Michael Boroditsky hosted 

a casual event at their home to introduce about 40 

people to JFM. Rob Berkowits, JFM’s Director of 

Development & Gift Planning, spoke as did 2017 

EBOL signer Rory Paul. Paul told his family’s story 

and spoke about the importance of building a 

community whose members take care of each other. 

Youth in Philanthropy 


In May, JFM provided $3,000 to Gray Academy of 

Jewish Education’s Youth in Philanthropy program. 

Through the Gemilut Chasadim course, Grade 

10 students learned about various charities in 

Winnipeg and supported six organizations with 

these funds. See page 27 to learn how the students 

distributed their funds.

MESSAGE FROM THE 

CEO & Chair 

Looking to the Future 

In 2017, two more organizations in our community established 

Organizational Endowment Funds and qualified for matching funds 

from the Foundation. 

Temple Shalom (Winnipeg’s only Reform congregation) and Shalom 

Residences Foundation (the fundraising arm of Shalom Residences, an 

organization serving adults with intellectual disabilities) placed their trust 

in the Foundation and were rewarded for their commitment. Thanks to the 

FundMatch incentive, Temple Shalom’s fund was bolstered by an additional 

$18,000, while Shalom Residences Foundation attained the maximum 

BERVIN incentive of $108,000. 

There are now 24 Jewish organizations in the community that have opened 

Organizational Endowment Funds. We thank these organizations for their 

trust and congratulate them on their foresight and optimism. 

The costs of delivering programs and services will continue to rise, so as 

these Organizational Endowment Funds grow, they will become increasingly 

important to the financial stability of the community. By opening and 

growing endowment funds, these organizations are investing now to ensure 

a reliable source of funding in the future. They are making a statement that 

they intend to be here, serving the community for the long term. 

The engagement of community organizations is a cornerstone of the 

Foundation’s success. Healthy organizational endowments help ensure the 

vitality of the community. Strong market performance is critical, as is a 

sound investment strategy. With the oversight of the Investment Committee, 

our assets are effectively allocated and well managed by leading investment 

professionals. Above all, though, our success is driven by your financial 

commitment to the Foundation. The philanthropic spirit of the Jewish 

community of Winnipeg is legendary – and we see evidence of it all the time. 


With your generous gifts, come growth and increased impact. As our asset 

base expands, there is more we can do to meet the needs of our Jewish 

community now and in the future. And there is more we can do to enrich life 

for all Manitobans. 

Thank you for your ongoing support. Thank you for building a stronger future.

MESSAGE FROM THE 

Chief Financial Officer 

Growth in Many Ways 

For 2017, we are pleased to report that the Foundation’s asset 

base increased to $118 million, a $10 million increase from the 

previous year. The increase reflects $4.0 million in new endowment 

contributions and a net return on investments of 9.8%. During 2017, 

the historical endowment contributions to the Foundation exceeded 

$100 million. We repeatedly comment that growth for growth’s sake is 

not the Foundation’s ultimate objective. Growth translates to increased 

cash flow of grants and scholarships to the overall community over the 

long term. 

Based on 2017 performance, the Foundation will capitalize, (add back) 

$3 million of residual income to the endowment funds in 2018. 

Community organizations play a significant role in the success of 

the Foundation. At the end of 2017 through various fund matching 

programs, 12 organizations have (historically) contributed in 

aggregate $2.8 million that has qualified for matching capital from 

the Foundation. In turn, the Foundation shall provide $520,000 in 

matching capital to these organizations. These types of programs, 

which provide incremental and permanent annual income to 

community organizations, are one example of how the Foundation, in 

concert with its constituents, works to better our community. 

During 2017, the Foundation committed almost $1.4 million in 

grants to the community. The primary reason for this increase over 

the previous year was a significant $600,000 grant to the Asper Jewish 

Community Campus in support of security upgrades. Grants for these 

vital and compelling purposes are only possible through the continued 

support and confidence in the Jewish Foundation by our donors and 

beneficiary organizations –for which the Board and staff are 

extremely appreciative.

The BERVIN Effect 

Community Organizations Benefit from Powerful Incentive Fund 

The Berdie & Irvin Cohen (BERVIN) Incentive Fund 

was established in 2014 to provide an incentive to Jewish 

organizations to grow their endowment funds or establish 

their first one. The fund is another way the memory of Berdie 

and Irvin Cohen – a couple remembered for their values, work 

ethic, upstanding character, and good parenting – is honoured 

by their son. 

In the past, some organizations have been nervous about 

establishing endowment funds because they understood that 

they could never access the contributed capital. The BERVIN 

Incentive Fund addresses that concern, provides a financial 

incentive, and offers a higher rate of return than a typical GIC. 

How does it work? 

• When a participating Winnipeg Jewish organization adds 

$720,000 dollars to its new or existing organizational 

endowment fund, it triggers a $108,000 incentive 

contribution from the BERVIN Incentive Fund. 

• Once an organization reaches the $1 million mark in 

new money, they earn the right to withdraw from their 

endowment fund in the event of a rainy day or special 

project – this withdrawal cannot exceed 50% of the 

original $1 million. 

What are the guidelines? 

• Organizational endowments that qualify for BERVIN 

must declare at the time of contributing their gift(s) that 

at least 50% will be allocated to permanent endowment. 

• The organization can grow its fund by accumulating gifts 

from multiple donors. 

How does an organization qualify? 

• You must be a Jewish organization residing in Manitoba. 

• Your organization’s primary purpose must be of benefit 

to Manitoba’s Jewish community, the State of Israel, and 

must be in keeping with the JFM’s mission.

FUNDMATCH 

FundMatch is an initiative designed to entice organizations 

to grow their endowment funds according to their capacity. 

When certain benchmarks are reached, the FundMatch 

initiative provides an additional contribution to the 

organizational endowment fund, which generates even 

more income for that organization. 

JFM is grateful to our donors who have provided the 

matching money for FundMatch. This initiative would not 

be possible without them.

Endowment Fund Balances 

at December 31, 2017 

Our endowment fund listings are organized in two broad categories: 

(1) Organizational Endowment and Special Interest Funds; and (2) 

Individual and Family Funds. All distributions from these funds are 

approved by the Jewish Foundation of Manitoba Board of Directors. 

Organizational Endowment 

and Special Interest Funds 


Organizational Endowment Funds are an important cornerstone of our success as a foundation and as a 

community. By launching and growing their own endowment funds, our institutions ensure an annual flow 

of income – in perpetuity. Our Special Interest Funds allow donors to come together to support programs 

and services more broadly (like Jewish camping, special needs, or women’s causes, for example).

Women’s Endowment Fund 

Income from the WEF is distributed to organizations that successfully apply for 

funding for projects and programs designed to enhance the lives of women and 

girls in Manitoba. 


A person whose name is followed by the letter “F ” was a Founder of the WEF in 1994. A person whose 

name is followed by the letter “B” stepped forward as a Builder in 2013. We are grateful to these visionary 

women and to all of our donors.
