The United Jewish Appeal Greenwich, a local chapter of the world’s largest local philanthropy organization, tasked with fulfilling a mission to care for people in need, inspire a passion for Jewish life and learning, and strengthen Jewish communities in New York, in Israel, and around the world has appointed the current President of the Greenwich Reform Synagogue Marc Abrams to its 2017 Board of Directors. I am honored to serve as a representative of my Synagogue to the UJA Greenwich Board and look forward to continuing to assist the organization in its incredibly important work both locally and around the globe.
