We are so proud of Women’s Board member Lisa Feit Silverman for being recognized by TOV Volunteer Network (JUF), and for all of her hard work on behalf of the community! Mazel tov, and thank you, Lisa!
Congratulations to our November Volunteer Spotlight: Lisa Silverman! We couldn't do what we do without the help of our incredible volunteers like you!
Lisa has been volunteering with TOV since 2014 through the JUF Uptown Cafe, Good Deeds Day, and Nourish Our Neighborhoods. We wanted to get to know Lisa a little bit more, so she answered some of our questions below:
How did you first get involved with JUF/TOV? What makes it important for you to volunteer through TOV? Are there any fun facts about you that we might not know? Feel free to also share a story or experience that has inspired you.
"I became involved in JUF when I moved to Chicago 10 years ago. I was looking for a community to feel at home. When I walked into my first Spring Event, a room filled with 800 Jewish women, all trying to make other lives better, I knew I found that community.
I have been involved in various TOV events over the years through JUF. As my involvement increased, I was invited to join Nourish Our Neighborhood. Giving back fills my soul. I am always inspired by the women of Chicago’s generosity of time, energy, ideas and financial support. I feel so lucky to be a part of this group."
We are so lucky to have Lisa as part of our TOV family! To learn more about JUF’s important work in the community, sign up to volunteer, or to make a donation in her honor, please visit JUF.org/TOV
Thank you to all the amazing women who joined us for FLEX yesterday at The ARK! We had a truly empowering and meaningful morning touring the facility, working hands-on in their food pantry, and learning about the incredible work they do for the Jewish community. We love having these in person experiences and can’t wait for the next one!
Happy #NationalPhilanthropyDay from your JUF Women’s Philanthropy! Today we recognize the great contributions of those who have given so generously to help us enrich our community. Philanthropy makes it possible for us to help those who need it most. How does philanthropy impact your life?
