Annual Report
In 2007, YOU touched over 6,000 lives through your support of Jewish Family Service.

This number includes the people we empowered to overcome life’s many obstacles such as illness, divorce, or loss of a spouse. But it doesn’t count the families and friends who delighted in seeing their loved ones strengthened by JFS counseling and support. This number includes senior adults who continued to be independent at home because of the experienced care management they received from Jewish Family Service. But it doesn’t count the adult children and grandchildren who felt at ease knowing Mom and Dad were being watched with a skillful eye.
And the number 6,000 doesn’t include so many other caring people connected to Jewish Family Service: our 43 compassionate staff members and contract workers, over 1,400 community attendees at Homeland in Cincinnati, 43 community partners, 601 generous donors, and 22 dedicated Board members.

Some say this is the Power of One. We say it is the power of YOU.
