YAD's Campaign 2010 Kick Off

Monday evening, November 2, the Young Adult Division of MJF celebrated its Annual Community Campaign Kick off with an evening of comedy at the Chabad Center for Jewish Life. The evening was filled with laughs from native Memphian, Michael Danziger and the featured comedian, Benji Lovitt, a Dallas native who made Aliyah three years ago and currently resides in Jerusalem.

The main reason the crowd was there was to help Memphis Jewish Federation by making their Annual Community Campaign Gift. Lovitt spoke from the heart about how he sees first hand Federation dollars at work all around Israel. He also talked about some of the local agencies that are the heart and soul of our Memphis community and are supported by Federation dollars.
