‘05 Annual Community Campaign In this record-breaking year, we raised $8.6 million. We also worked hard to better understand the philanthropic goals of our generous donors and work in closer partnership with agencies to address real community needs. Of the $8.6 million raised in this year’s annual Community Campaign, $6.2 million was raised for our Greatest Needs Fund and was allocated among four pillars—Human Need, Jewish Education, Jewish Identity and Community Building, and World Jewry—comprising more than 33 local, national and international benefi ciaries, including those that have no other means of support. The remaining $2.4 million raised was designated by donors to specifi c agencies and special projects. For example, Seattle-area Jews responded with compassion for the victims of the tsunami disaster in Southeast Asia, raising more than $100,000 to help those in need. Examples of allocations to the four pillars: 1. Human Need: Jewish Family Service received an additional $10,000 to implement its Senior Services strategic plan. 2. Jewish Education: Hillel at the UW received an increase of more than $8,000 for its programming for 21-30-year-olds at its new campus facility. 3. Jewish Identity and Community Building: The Stroum Jewish Community Center was allocated a second year of additional funding in the amount of $15,000 to support its North Seattle operations. 4. World Jewry: The Khabarovsk Chesed Center in Eastern Siberia received new funding of more than $21,000—on top of the Federation’s continued allocation of $28,500—to feed the hungry in the former Soviet Union.
