s a customer of the Jewish
Home, Chai Point, Sarah
Chudnow Community or Adult
Day Center, how do you feel about the
services we provide? By customer, we
mean anyone who receives
service from any of our
facilities or programs,
whether you are a
resident or a family
member.
According to
Randy Crosby, Chief
Operating Officer, “We’re
getting much more into
management analytics where
we are gathering quality information
from a number of sources to help us
improve our services.” He stresses
that, along with gathering information,
the organization has a “continuous
quality improvement philosophy” that
is a part of all of the operations. “We
deeply value feedback from customers,
employees, referral sources, volunteers
and others who are involved in some
way either receiving or providing
services.”
In order to implement
the program in a fair
and unbiased way, the
services of National
Research Corporation
have been secured to
conduct surveys using
the My InnerView service
on a rotating basis throughout
the year. The information is
collected in a consistent manner from
period to period, “so that we can
benchmark against our own data as
well as against that of our peers in the
industry,” stated Crosby.

A Heartfelt Thank You
After four years as chair of the Jewish Home and Care Center, it gives me great pleasure
to acknowledge and thank the many staff members who have made it possible for me to
be an effective leader during that time. At every level, you stood by my side, gave me your
assistance, and worked with me to insure that the care and comfort of our residents were
always the first priority. Thank you for being my advisors and my friends.

ReCharge/Day Center
Adult Day Programs
Day Center Participants Define
Their Own Program and Space
A
s a philosophy for the Adult
Day Center (ADC), the
staff focuses on offering
choices, decision making, nurturing
relationships, and supporting
independence. Program Director
Dawn Adler says, “We believe
commonalities lead to relationships;
relationships lead to a sense of
community.”
To that end, participants were asked
to help define their “space”; what
did they want it to look like? What
should be in it? As a result, the ADC
now sports a library space, Coffee
Café, and a yoga room. There is
room set aside for exercise, and
some family members have given
donations to help make these
particular requests possible. “We
continue to transform the ADC
according to their interests,” says
Adler. “We like the Day Center to
represent the people there.” For
instance, she says, if someone is
interested in photography, they make
sure there are photography books in
the library. “We now have a couple
of guitars for people who like to play
guitar.”
Enrollment in the ADC has jumped
in the past year, and the staff has
grown with it. “We take pride in
the professionalism of our staff,”
Adler says, “from a yoga instructor,
a certified occupational therapist
assistant, to a licensed health care
administrator; we have added
more quality people to our already
excellent staff.”
Liza Holle gave out hand-dipped strawberries
with each purchase.
An ongoing program at the ADC has
been the For The Cause campaign.
Participants choose the cause that
they are working towards, which is a
reflection of the varied communities
that make up the Adult Day Center.
It was the brain child of staff member
Liza Holle, who says, “We each come
from a different community, and we
have a sense of community here. All
of our participants gave us ideas for
causes. We do a different one every
other month.”
The program was kicked off with a
boutique sale with all proceeds going
to the SE Wisconsin Alzheimer’s
Association. About $400 was raised
from the sale of handmade goods
including knitted and crocheted
items, baked goods, and other crafts.
Wonderful baked goods were for sale.
The second “cause” was the Jewish
Community Pantry, with a collection
of non-perishable food items. And
the most recent “cause” has been
a collection of dental and first aid
items. The recipient of these is still
under discussion, with a number of
agencies being considered.
For The Cause will continue
throughout the year. As new
participants join the group, new
causes will be considered.
Many unique items were available.

JHCC Activities
Marvelous Month of Mitzvahs
T
o celebrate the season of
thanksgiving, the Jewish Home
and Care Center acknowledged
November as the “Marvelous Month
of Mitzvahs” and engaged in mitzvahs
(good deeds or commandments) within
the greater Milwaukee community and
beyond.
The “Marvelous Month of Mitzvahs”
kicked off with the Become a
“Blanketeer!” campaign to benefit
Project Linus, an organization that gives
blankets to children experiencing illness
or a traumatic event. Those participating
knitted or crocheted five-inch squares
in any color, pattern or stitch; finished
squares were then used to create a
blanket. All in all, 60 squares were
created for the Project Linus blanket.
Crocheted squares weren’t the only
items collected. JHCC held a food
drive to benefit the Jewish Community
Pantry. During the two-week drive,
81 pounds of non-perishable food
items were collected! In addition to
food collection, residents and staff
participated in Penny Wars. The
concept is simple. Pennies count as one
cent each but silver coins and paper
money subtract from the team’s (floor’s)
total. Teams placed silver coins and
paper money into their competitors’
jars to give themselves an advantage.
This friendly competition raised
$210.77 for the Jewish Community
Pantry. Congratulations to the first floor
for collecting the most pennies in the
Penny Wars!
Keeping with the hunger awareness
theme, Jewish Home and Care Center
hosted an “Empty Bowls” Luncheon
and Pottery sale on November
17 in Peck Hall. According to the
Empty Bowls website, the Empty
Bowls concept is an international
program whereby “potters and other
craftspeople, educators and others
work with the community to create
handcrafted bowls. Guests are invited
to a simple meal of soup and bread. In
exchange for a cash donation, guests
are asked to keep a bowl as a reminder
of all the empty bowls in the world.
The money raised is donated to an
organization working to end hunger
and food insecurity.” JHCC residents
and students from Torah Academy of
Milwaukee (TAM) painted ceramic
bowls that were available for purchase.
At the luncheon, attendees purchased
the bowl of their choice and enjoyed
soup and the breaking of bread with
staff and the community. The proceeds
of $348 were donated to the Jewish
Community Pantry.
Thanksgiving Day was marked by
“Braids of Blessings,” an opportunity
for all to learn about the history and
tradition behind the mitzvah of
challah. Names were submitted in
the “Blessings Box” in the JHCC
lobby. While making the challah,
50 special blessings were offered for
those in need. Some tasty braids of
challah were eaten too!
Additionally, Mitzvah Maple Trees
were “planted” in various locations
in the building throughout the
month of November. Residents,
families and staff could write
mitzvah messages, or “leaves,” for
4
people thanking them for all the work
they do. Almost 100 mitzvah leaves
were shared showing kind, encouraging
remarks about each other!
Thanks to all the residents, families,
friends and staff who participated
and made November a month full of
blessings. It truly was a Marvelous
Month of Mitzvahs!

Sarah chudnow Community
SCC Interfaith Choral Concert Tops the Charts!
E
very year in November, the Sarah Chudnow
Community plays host to the faith community as the
Interfaith Choral Concert brings everyone together
in song. Each year, the popularity of the event grows, as was
evidenced by the standing-room-only crowd that gathered
for the event in Posner Town Square and stretched out to the
windows.
This year’s performers included the Sarah Chudnow Glee
Club, directed by Larry Ladin, with accompanist Carla
Coonan; Good Shepherd Catholic Church directed by Sister
Joann Julka; Congregation Beth Israel Ner Tamid directed by
Enid Bootzin Berkovits and Hazzan Jeremy Stein; Crossroads
Presbyterian Church, directed by Todd O’Conner; Lumen
Christi, directed by Margaret Caldwell and Peggy Hughes;
Milwaukee Jewish Community Chorale, conducted by Enid
Bootzin Berkovits; and Grace Lutheran Church, directed by
Brian Dearing.
The evening began with the Sarah Chudnow Glee Club singing
“On a Wonderful Day Like Today” from the musical
The Roar of the Greasepaint, the Smell of the Crowd.
Two standouts from the performance included Lumen Christi
Church joining the performance for the first time this year,
singing Hashivenu completely in Hebrew (arranged by Doreen
Rao), and the finale, Down by the Riverside, which was sung
by all the participants
together. The evening
was organized by Sarah
Chudnow’s Larry Ladin,
who said “Having everyone
sing the finale together was
inspiring.”
SCC is already at work
planning the spring senior
center concert, another
annual concert that is very
well attended. Dates for
that as well as next year’s
interfaith event will be
announced on Facebook
as well as in upcoming
editions of the eNewsletter
and Homespun.

Our Talented Volunteers
In 2013, two young ladies did b’nai
mitzvah service with Jewish Home and
Care Center and Chai Point residents.
Ellie Dallet spent many Monday
afternoons coming to the Jewish Home
and Care Center to help with ceramics.
She wanted to do something special to
commemorate the time she spent in the
activity room. Ellie chose to donate a
portion of her bat mitzvah gift money
to purchase a potter’s wheel for
residents.
Daniella Marcus is currently
doing her b’nai mitzvah service
with the residents at Chai Point.
She chose to do her service there
after having spent Mitzvah Day
with the Milwaukee Jewish Day
School at Chai Point. She enjoyed
the time spent with the seniors
so much that she decided to do
her b’nai mitzvah service helping
out with bingo and bringing
her dog Ti to visit the residents.
Inside of the invitations to her
bat mitzvah, Dani asked her guests to
make donations in honor of her bat
mitzvah to the Jewish Home and Care
Center Foundation. The funds that were
donated will go to purchase a new bingo
set and a series of PBS documentaries
to benefit the life-long learning and
pleasurable viewing of the residents.

he people who volunteer at the
Jewish Home and Care Center,
Chai Point and the Sarah
Chudnow Community have always
made a huge contribution toward
enriching the lives of residents and
helping to ease the workload of our staff.
Volunteers help with bingo and
ceramics, work in the gift shop and café,
accompany residents on outings and
spend quality time visiting, sharing, and
learning from the people who live here.
In the past six months we have
welcomed more than 100 new
volunteers. Some of these volunteers
come with skills and talents, personal
goals, and the desire to make a lasting
impact on the people they touch.
We are fortunate to have so many
talented volunteers who are
willing to share their hobbies,
special skills, and passions with
the residents. Do you have any
special skills or talents that
you would be willing to share?

Sculptures by Richard Edelman
Enhance Chai Point Senior Living
W
hen visiting Chai Point, you
are sure to notice a number
of beautiful sculptures
in and around the building. These
sculptures include “To Life,” which is
in front of Chai Point and dedicated in
memory of Max Gendelman, as well
as additional sculptures in the lobby
area. The creative artist behind these
sculptures is Milwaukee-area sculptor
Richard Edelman.
Generation to Generation Award
Photos by Ryan Hainey
Edelman has been around metal all of his
life. He worked in several different scrap
businesses when he was younger and
eventually settled into the metal trading
business where he worked for over 20
years. Now retired, he has been keeping
busy with creative projects of his own.
Chai Point is honored to be hosting an
ongoing exhibit of Richard Edelman’s
work in its lobby, as well as being the
permanent home of “To Life!” Featured
here are photos of Richard Edelman’s
sculptures currently on display at Chai
Point, as well as a new item, which was

The bronze Generation to Generation
Award was presented to the Gene and
Ruth Posner Foundation at the 2013
Generation to Generation Luncheon.

ancients know? Bronze is silent, no need
to shout. Its words will outlast us by

thousands of years while articulating the finest of details modeled
in clay and plaster.”
Edelman explained, “My stainless steel sculpture in front of
the Chai Point building is entitled TO LIFE. While standing
approximately fifteen feet tall, it weighs only five hundred
pounds including the base. The relatively low weight is due to its
construction based on the very durable and flexible double helix
DNA molecule of life. I chose this structure to express the theme
of life for the eighteenth year celebration of Chai Point, which
is also why the word chai (life) was chosen for the individual
elements. TO LIFE flexes but does not break in the high winds
off Lake Michigan. Stainless steel is a contemporary metal which
expresses newness and the future, though the manner in which
I worked it…hand blacksmithing red hot with hammers and
tongs…is as old as the words beat your swords into plowshares.
TO LIFE thus unites themes of the new and the old.
Akedah Isaac
“But Where Is The Lamb?” 2012, Bronze
“There are currently three of my bronze sculptures in the Chai
Point lobby common areas. Bronze sculptures are created by
modeling figures in clay and plaster, then molding them, and
finally casting in metal using the disappearing wax method. This
ancient process I believe best tells the story of the binding of
Isaac. In the face of ABRAHAM I attempt to capture the fear and
focus of a father at the moment he is asked to sacrifice his son.
In ISAAC AT THE BINDING is the son, kindling on his back,
at the moment he asks with concern Father, where is the ram for
the sacrifice? Meanwhile, THE RAM looks on blankly but not
meekly, about to take Isaac’s place.”
The bronze sculptures of Abraham, Isaac and the Ram are all on
display in the Chai Point lobby. Visitors are invited to visit Chai
Point to view them.
