"Super Days" at JFNS

Jewish Federation of the North Shore kicks off campaign with "Super Days"

In a new approach to raising money for its annual community campaign, the Jewish Federation of the North Shore (JFNS) announces “Super Days,” a series of opportunities for volunteer callers to reach donors between Sunday, November 6, and Sunday, December 4.

Super Days will be held: 

  • Sunday, November 6 from 9 am to 1 pm at the JFNS office, 39 Norman Street, Suite 302, Salem
  • Monday, November 14 from 5 to 8 pm at The Sagan Agency, 300 Salem Street, Swampscott
  • Monday, November 28 from 5 to 8 pm at Re/Max Advantage, 515 Lowell Street, Peabody
  • Sunday, December 4 from 9 am to 1 pm at the JFNS office, 39 Norman Street, Suite 302, Salem

“This approach will maximize opportunities to reach our donors and meet our overall campaign goal of raising $1.5 million dollars this year,” explains JFNS Campaign Counsel Flori Schwartz. “By expanding the traditional Super Sunday event into a series of Super Days, we should be able to include more volunteers in our efforts and at the same time reach more people.  We hope that we can reach many people in the 23 communities served by JFNS over the course of the month by asking people to Make the Call and Take the Call, our theme for the event.“
