News, Views and Plans Meet the Members of Our Cabinet
By Rosalind Taranto
The Women’s Cabinet of the
Charlotte Jewish Federation

summer and has exciting
plans for their 1989 Campaign.
Under the leadership of Emi
ly Zimmem, president; Meg
Goldstein, 1989 Campaign
chairperson, and the 1989 Cab
inet, we £dl hope to reach out
.and involve the entire Jewish
community. The Cabinet works
as an umbrella: Think of each
rib as a member with a specific
portfolio, that when opened,
protects the needs of specific
areas.
Bobbi Bernstein, CJF presi
dent, is an ex-officio member
of the Cabinet. Other members
of the Cabinet and their port
folios are: Lee Blumenthal,
Pacesetter chair; Peggy Gart
ner, Upgrade chair; Maddie
Joffe, Mission chair; Fran
Lyons, Outreach/Jews by
Choice chair; Baila Pransky,
Cash Collections chair; Wendy
Rosen, Suffer Sunday chair;
Lynne Sheffer, Education
chair; Rosalind Taranto and
Sandra Weinstein, Public Re
lations cochairs; Nadine Fox,
chair of Women’s Division of
Gastonia; Dorothy Ashendorf,
Ruth Goldberg, Claire Putter-
man and Sara Schreibman.
Vicki Hopkins is the staff per
son for Women’s Division.
There are some exciting
events already planned and
scheduled for Women’s Divi
sion. On October 20, 7:30 p.m.
at Shalom Park, “Jews on the
Edge” wiU be presented. Sher
ry Frank, the Southeast Area
Director of the American Jew
ish Conmiittee, who lives in
Atlanta, will be the keynote
speaker. A local panel and the
audience will discuss topics of
interest to all ages: Intermar
riage, Drug Dependency, the
Elderly. It is open to everyone.
The program has been planned
by the Education Committee
headed by Lynne Sheffer.
On Nov. 10, National
Women’s Division Chairper
son Bobbi Klotz wiU be the
keynote speaker for the Pace
setter event. The Pacesetter
Committee, headed by Lee
Blumenthal, feels most for
tunate in having a person of
Bobbi’s stature speak and
share her experiences.
Outstanding Peformance by WD
Women’s Division for the
1988 Campaign was responsi
ble for raising over $160,000
which was a $23,000 increase
over their 1987 conmiitment.
Just as our needs increase
yearly in Israel, in our nation
and in Charlotte, so our com
mitment must increase for the
1989 Campaign.

Sandra Gold Weinstein
Sandra, a native of Lumber-
ton, NC, moved to Charlotte
over four years ago and knows
the importance of a cohesive
Jewish community. Growing
up in a town with a very smaU
Jewish population, having to
travel every Sunday 100 miles
for Sunday School, and having
no Jewish Community Center
to meet and interact with
other Jews, she always knew
she wanted to be an integral
part of a larger Jewish com
munity. She has always loved
her heritage and has a greater
appreciation for having grown
up as she did. Sandra’s impact
on Charlotte has been tremen
dous. She has served as co
chairperson for “Shalom
Y’all,” cochairperson of Super
Sunday 1988 and is involved
in Temple Beth El V’Shalom.
She works full time with the
NC State Department of Rev
enue. Sandra made her first
visit to Israel this summer.

Rosalind Taranto
I moved to Charlotte, by
choice, almost a year ago from
Columbus, Georgia. I chose
Charlotte for many reasons,
but one of the most important
was its active Jewish commu
nity. Since my teenage years
when I first became active in
B’nai B’rith Girls and through
the years of being active in
Rosalind Taranto
Hadassah and Federation,
I’ve always known how impor
tant a cohesive conmiunity
can be. It gives me a sense of
continuity with my heritage
being an American Jewess.
Our heritage is something no
one can take away, but we all
must do our part to preserve
it. I am the mother of three
daughters and have two grand
sons.
