August 29th Campaign Kick-Off Features the highly acclaimed Mentalist, Sidney the Seer!

You’ll be delighted by Sidney the Seer (known to his family as Sidney Friedman).  Sidney “sees all and knows all” and looks forward to meeting you at the opening event of the 2011 All-in-One Campaign Kick-Off event 4:30 pm on Sunday, August 29 at the Downtown Marriott.  

Benefactor Dinner to follow.

To reserve your place, please return your reservation card.

As featured on NBC-TV’s TODAY SHOW, ABC-TV’s THE VIEW and CBS-TV’s THE EARLY SHOW, here is your chance to experience America’s premier mentalist Sidney Friedman.


Known as “the mentalist to the stars” (Chicago Tribune) for his many celebrity clients, Friedman will read your mind, and perform ESP, telepathy and premonition. Plus, you will witness his unique “Music Mind Reading” where audience members think of song melodies and Friedman telepathically senses each tune then plays them on the piano.


TODAY SHOW host Hoda Kotb states, “A few people are better at seeing the future than others, like mentalist Sidney Friedman. We love Sidney.”  
The CHICAGO TRIBUNE writes, “Mentalist to the stars, Sidney Friedman is the master of all things psychic.”


And TIMEOUT magazine exclaims, “Friedman will blow your mind!”
Friedman is also the author of the national best-selling book YOUR MIND KNOWS MORE THAN YOU DO which reached #8 on AMAZON.  
This will be a rare event. Be thrilled and elevated. Experience mentalist Sidney Friedman.


Chairpersons for the Kick-Off event are Judy and Larry Deutch, Barbara Hirsch-Giller and Harvey Giller, and Jule and Steven Goldstein.

DM Jewish Family Services Helps 84 Year Old Community Member Stay in Iowa

An 84 year old female community member, who lives alone, had been falling in her apartment many times.  Her children were concerned that their Mom would fall and no one would be there to help her and so were considering moving her to live with one of them out of state.  This would mean away from friends, synagogue, etc.  The client was very upset, she did not want to move.  So, JFS discussed the situation with the children and it was decided that Lifeline would be installed in the client's home.  The children were happy to be informed of the service and felt their mom would be much safer as it would provide a much more secure environment.  So, OASIS (a program of JFS), provided the finances to have Lifeline installed and the children will provide the monthly payments!  The client is delighted that she can stay in her apartment and doesn't have to move! 

Jewish Family Services is able to help over 300 seniors a year because of your generous contributions to the Federation's All-in-One Campaign.

Palestinians Have to Say "The Conflict Is Over," As Sadat Did - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs)

  • ". We  want to make sure that the {Palestinians] have their own independent dignified life, but that they don't threaten the State of Israel....In addition, the Palestinians have to do something that they so far have not done. And that is to do what Anwar Sadat did - to come forward and say, 'It's over. The conflict is over. There is no more war, there is no more bloodshed and there will be no more conflict.'"
