It takes many volunteers to make Jewish education ‘^happen” By Lenora Stein, Executive Director, CAJE To paraphrase the bit of folk wis dom that says “it takes a whole vil lage to raise a child,” the Carolina Agency for Jewish Education (CAJE), the smallest, autonomous Jewish organization at Shalom Park, needs many volunteers to make Jewish education “happen” in the community. With a teeny, tiny slaif of just one, and without the dedicated and loving work of so many conununity members who consistently volunteer their time during the year, CAJE simply could not provide its programs and services, such as; the multimedia Resource Center; the Charlotte Jewish Historical Society; Jewish teacher inservice workshops; cosponsorship of Jewish conmiuni- ty programs; newsletters; Jewish teacher {nx)fessional development scholarships and awards; Jewish Teachers’ Outlet store services; Shalom Park Educators’ Council; Jewish family education program design; access to the Judaic resources of the Internet and free advice on how best to use technol ogy in Jewish education; Wildacres Press; reference services; publica tions; and distributor of thousands of free pieces of educational Judaica during any given year. It’s time to recognize and say todah rabah, thank you, to these valued volunteers. Steve Menaker, and his staff at Gleiberman, Spears, Shepard, & Menaker, P.A., have spent many hours for almost more years than can be remembered, as Treasurer for CAJE: keeping up with taxes and government paperwork, accounting for all the business details that not-for-profit agencies need to keep up with — quietly, diligently, efficiently. Ruth Goidbcrg, a CAJE board member, and behind the scenes mentor and advisor, always steps in willingly, whether its to save the day in the inevitable emergency, or to just disp«ise the wisdom that can only come from her years of experience as a Jewish day school teacher and as the best Jewish com munity fundraiser in Charlotte (Jewish Federation Wonaen’s DivisiMi, Jewi^ Family Senrices, Temple IsFaei. you name die oc{a- nizatton — ste’s raised funds for them! — and now CAJE!). She is the anchor on the CAJE Creative Project of the ^ear competition judges team, afr^nt-line volunteer for whatever the CAJE event of the moment may be;, the person who, in her no-nonseivse way, provides direction and invaluable guidance. Susan Wilhite, during the past year, has been a true treasure for the operation of ^AJE, volunteer ing on a twice w&^ckly regular basis as administrative assistant when the tight CAJE Audget precluded filling the paicS. staff position. Susan’s creativity, computer skills, human resource experience and willingness to dcD just about any thing that needed doing in the CAJE office, (and her innate sense of humor!) has aneant that many projects such as editing the Creative Project cz)f the Year books, working on production of newslet ters and even assisting with fund raising mailings and on helping with the adminisDrative side of pro grams, have be«n accomplished smoothly because of her sustained efforts. We wish Susan much mazal, good luck , with her private consulting business— even though this means she’s Imad to take a break from her volunteering at CAJE, at least for now. Sam Eneman, Chairman of the Charlotte Jewish Historical Society and a CAJE Board member, has coordinated the v^ideo oral history project for the teiv years of its exis tence. In addition he has worked on almost every aspect of this commu nity historical resource project in a very hands-on way as its cofounder, including: the develop ment of the photcD archive, video taping strategic ccDnununity events for historical purp^oses, spearhead ing the effort to wvin a grant from the state of NC to Aegin the [Mxxress of preservation of liistorical materi als in the collect-Jon, fundraising, serving as a liaison with the Museum of the New South and the Public Library anc9 other communi ty resources. He cm always be counted on, even when the CAJE Purim carnival bo«)th needed a res ident photographer. We can’t mentis the Charlotte Jewish Historical Society without acknowledging GMiGrft^ its co chair, who wu instniRienta] in writing the NC ttvtt gnot dut has enabled matrntls preservalioQ to b^n, »d has mwcsted in her education to be trained as a preser vation docent so she could teach other volunteers to implement this very necessary program for the Historical Society collection. The members of the Historical Society who have volunteered many hours during the year on so many projects of this very active group include: Howard Clein (Recording Secretary), Murray Monosoff, Audrey Madans, Jay Jacoby, Jaffa Jr., Ed Green, Sandy HIrsdinian, Eric Lemer (who assisted with the preservation project), Rita and Irving Mend, Walter Klein (who wrote and researched Two Centuries of Charlotte Jewish Life, a Tour Map — now in its second printing!), Elizabeth Klein, and of course, Richard A. Klein, the founder of the group and its Chairman for many years, who conceived of the value of this project a decade or more before there was even a CAJE. Seth J. Stein is the resident CAJE vplunteer computer consul tant and in-house Internet webmas ter. He advises on all things com puter technical for CAJE, from database management to why does n’t the printer work today (?) to (Continued on page 23) PEST CONTROL' TREATMENT • Noa at Seventeen (86 min.) • Operation Solomon (9 min.) • Promise for a Thirsty Land (10 min.) • Sallah (105 min.) • Search for Solid Ground (33 min.) • Sing Along With Israel (56 min) • 5751 (1990-91) Year in Review (30 min.) • The Unafraid (35 min.) • This Is Israel (60 min.) • Trip of a Lifetime (10 min.) • Valley of Tears - Aley Sheer (4 min.) • Wake the Dawn - Story of Jerusalem’s Holy Temple (32 min.) • Yom Kippur War (28 min.) 7.W 5)« CPM^Ail AT THE ARBORETUM • Breakfast Served Ail Day • Full Service Grill for Lunch • Party Trays Available (24 hour advanced notice) I Mon-Fri 6-5 • Sat. 6:30-5 • Sun 7-3 Phone: 541-0833 (Fax: 543-91 io) Open 7 Days a Week " "4“ FRii’eAGELs" I with purchase of 12 bagels | I with coupon only • expires 5-31-98 • not valid with other specials or coupons | ^ MANHATTAN BAGEL CO. • ARBORETUM LOCATION ONLY j FANTASTIC FLOORING SALE STOCK CARPET Trackless, Berber, Plush & Commercial Up to 55 oz.
