Dear Community Member,
Sunday, June 11th
On Sunday morning, Federation coordinated the first of several scheduled
PJ Poolside programs at the Siegel JCC outdoor pool. The success of
PJ Library and
PJ Our Way in Delaware includes 428 active subscriptions reaching children between six months and 11 years of age. We are now offering $150 incentive grants through a new program,
PJ Get Together (see flyer below for more details).

I attended the Siegel JCC Annual Meeting on Monday evening to celebrate outgoing President Michelle Silberglied, incoming President Brent Saliman, as well as the other award winners. Federation values and supports the work of the Siegel JCC and their continued efforts in building community.
Tuesday, June 13th
Our Facilities Management Board (FMB) leadership met Monday morning to discuss active projects and activities.
I also attended a workshop coordinated by the Delaware Alliance for Nonprofit Advancement (DANA) entitled,
Telling the Story of Your Impact: Outcomes Reporting. Embracing a Theory of Change and Logic Modeling serves as the foundation for the development of an outcomes measurement system.
The Federation staff enjoyed a special luncheon with Immediate Past-President, Connie Sugarman, who expressed her sincere appreciation for Federation's professional support the past two years. It was a wonderful way of reinforcing the importance of a strong lay-pro relationship and working TOGETHER to further our mission.

I received a call from the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce (DSCC) informing us that Federation will be the featured organization in the Nonprofit Spotlight section of their September/October publication. This is a wonderful opportunity to inform and inspire the greater Delaware community how We Are Stronger TOGETHER!

Meeting with our donors and leadership is a gratifying aspect of my position as CEO. I thoroughly enjoy an opportunity to share our stories and successes with you. It is also a valuable learning experience for me to better understand our community's interests and how Federation can continually improve. Thank you for meeting with me and sharing your thoughts and suggestions!
We Are Stronger TOGETHER.
