UJC’s Challenge
The outgoing chairman of the United Jewish Communities (UJC), Charles Bronfman, has challenged the UJC leadership to \”change the perception out there that rich, old guys who write big checks are the only ones who count.\”
\”There are rich young men and women, who may or may not write big checks but who may have a wealth of ideas,\” he said. \”They may even have a desire to become more involved with the Jewish community. Will we give them the opportunity to lead?\” Bronfman, said in his departing speech to the North American Jewish federation system.
