Lunch & Learn: In Pursuit of Justice – Defining
Community and Responsibility
May 15, 2008,
12:30 – 1:15 PM EDT
Speaker: Aaron Dorfman, Director of Education, American Jewish World Service (AJWS) and author of Tzedakah in Action, a curriculum based on the work of the Temple Isaiah Seventh Grade Fund.
Community. Justice. Tikkun olam.
Obligation to give. These are just some of the buzzwords we use in our Jewish
youth philanthropy programs. But what do these words really mean? How we do we –
and our teens – interpret and understand these terms? Aaron Dorfman will lead us
through an exercise built to challenge and stretch our thinking about they ways
in which we define community and communal obligation, and then provide tips on
how you can bring this exercise and discussion back to your teens to inform
their grantmaking process.
