Welcome
Federation Early Learning Services
26th Annual
Love Our Kids Gala
Honoree
Ronald Perilstein
Ron, currently an Honorary Life Director and a former FELS
Board Chair, has been a board member for nearly 20 years.
Throughout his board tenure, Ron has led by example working
tirelessly helping us to fulfill our mission. His commitment to
the Jewish community also includes serving as Chair of the
Board of Overseers at Penn Hillel and Vice President of Har Zion
Temple. He is also a board member of the Madlyn and Leonard
Abramson Center for Jewish Life, Federation Endowments
Corporation and Hillel of Greater Philadelphia. Ron is President
of The Arjay Group, Inc., an insurance brokerage firm.
Guest Speaker
Rabbi David Wolpe
Named the most influential Rabbi in America by Newsweek, David
is the Rabbi of Sinai Temple in Los Angeles, CA. He is a writer and
columnist for many publications, including The LA Times and The
Huffington Post. Having appeared on the Today Show and Face
the Nation, he was also featured in a series on PBS, the History
and Discovery Channels. The author of eight books, including a
national best seller, his latest book, David: The Divided Heart has
been optioned for a movie.
For the past three years, it has been my privilege to be
the Ad Book Chair for this wonderful annual event; an
event that is dedicated to celebrating and supporting
FELS, an organization that provides excellence in child
care and early childhood education for families from
diverse backgrounds throughout the Delaware Valley.
It is also my honor to thank ALL OF YOU; our many
friends and business associates, for your support. I
especially thank our board members, not only for their
time obtaining ads, but also for their generous personal
donations to our Love Our Kids Ad Book.
A special thank you to our FELS Staff, Joanne Stretz, Deborah Koobrick and
Miranda von Salis, whose hard work and dedication go into making this Ad Book
a success.
To all of our guests who join us this evening to honor Ronald Perilstein, a fellow
board member and former Board Chair, whose dedication to our mission is
exemplary, and to hear our distinguished guest speaker, Rabbi David Wolpe,
I extend my sincere appreciation. Each one of you helps to make this a
memorable night.
Tomorrow and each day thereafter, we will continue making a difference in the
lives of the children whose families entrust us with their care. We cannot do it
alone; together we are a much stronger organization.

Federation Early Learning Services
Regarded as a leader in the field, Federation Early Learning Services (FELS)
has provided quality programs since 1911.
We enroll infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school age children from
diverse economic, religious and racial backgrounds on a year-round basis.
With eight centers and two public school sites located in Philadelphia,
Montgomery and Delaware Counties, we serve 1,000 children annually.
For over four decades, we have provided classroom supports for children
with special needs, while helping their families identify and obtain resources
vital to their child’s optimum development.
We are extremely proud of our staff many of whom have been with us for over
10 years. Their commitment to continuing their education and remaining current with best practices has resulted in their receiving prestigious awards during their careers with us.
Our professional staff serve in key regional and state leadership positions,
advocating for increased funding, higher standards and meaningful
legislation to ensure quality programs for all children. We have also served
as a resource for other early childhood education programs, offering advice,
support and technical assistance.
Mission Statement
Federation Early Learning Services (FELS) provides excellence in child care
and early childhood education for all families from diverse backgrounds
throughout the Delaware Valley.
Built on a foundation of Jewish values and traditions for over a century, FELS
is a recognized leader, helping families access affordable child care, providing
innovative programs for children and consultation services to the early
childhood community.
Vision Statement
FELS will continue to:
• Promote excellence by achieving and retaining national accreditation
• Provide safe and stimulating environments that teach children and their
families to respect diversity and honor differences
• Operate facilities that uphold the highest standards for learning and safety
• Serve as a leading regional resource for the early childhood community
• Maximize the abilities of all infants, toddlers, preschool, kindergarten
and school-age children enrolled in our programs
• Advocate for quality early childhood education in Pennsylvania
• Build a strong and vibrant Jewish community by offering Jewish Family
Life education programs to enrolled families and the communities we serve

Maddy Malis, President and CEO
At this time, we are indeed fortunate that early
childhood education is enjoying a favorable
political climate in the executive branches of
our federal and state governments. FELS has
always been more than an organization that
provides a vital service to children and their
families. We have a long history of advocating
for change and influencing public policy.
I ask that each of us continue our commitment
to FELS and the fight for high quality early
childhood education in our country. Let’s continue to dream about what
we want our educational system to become. Let’s continue to dedicate
ourselves to making it happen. Let’s make sure that all children enter
kindergarten ready to learn.
This year, we are privileged to honor Ronald Perilstein who makes the
commitment to FELS and high quality early childhood education. Ron is
unique. When he leads he focuses on priorities, takes reasonable risks
and does so with brevity, humility and, most significantly, humor. As
Board Chair from 2006 – 2009, he demonstrated his vision, his clarity and
his determination to get things done. For over 19 years, he has worked
to ensure that our strategic plans are implemented and our legacy
continues for the next 100 years.
I thank each and every one of you for honoring Ron’s work; for honoring
FELS’ work; for honoring those who cannot speak for themselves through
your presence here tonight. You are already helping make the dream
come true.

Message from David Pollack, Board Chair
As a pediatrician and incoming Chair of the Board of
Directors, it gives me great pleasure to thank you for
supporting excellence in early childhood education. Most
importantly, I thank you for supporting an organization that
has been caring for children and strengthening families for
over 100 years.
This year we honor Ronald Perilstein for his exceptional
service and commitment to FELS. As an active board
member since 1996, Ron has served in a variety of
leadership capacities and currently participates on three vital
committees. Leading by example throughout his tenure, he
continues to play a pivotal role in our new business ventures
and has been instrumental in helping the organization
fulfill its strategic mission. We thank him for his vision,
determination, and dedication to our children and families.
I would also like to offer very special thanks to this evening’s Gala Chairs, Andi and Scott
Barsky. Scott and Andi both have been tremendously involved with FELS in so many
ways, ever since 1988 when Scott became a board member. We are grateful for their
commitment and contributions all these years, especially for making tonight’s Gala such an
enjoyable and successful event.
To our Champion Sponsors, PNC Bank and the Dozoretz Family Foundation and to
our Benefactors, Digital Benefit Advisors, Jill and Mark Fishman, The Haverford Trust
Company, Helene and Lester Rosenfeld and the Tioga Foundation, we are most grateful
for your generosity.
I also want to extend my own heartfelt thanks and appreciation to FELS. My service
on the board and as an officer in the organization for the past decade has been my
way of expressing, along with my wife Amy, tremendous gratitude for setting both our
children, Eliza and Gabriel, on life paths of which we are extremely proud. They were both
graduates of the Kehillah Early Learning Center, which FELS helped establish in 1986
within our own synagogue community at a time when there was no Jewish “Day Care”
available in all of Delaware County. Many years later Eliza is using her Masters degree in
Public Policy, working for the City of Philadelphia to bring innovation and technology to
local government as well as underserved areas of the city. Gabriel graduated from the
Oberlin Conservatory of Music as a jazz trumpeter and entrepreneur, and is currently living
his dream in Cleveland as the manager of a new and highly successful music venue. They
are both happy and empathic adults, so much of which is grounded in the incredible
foundation that they received through FELS programs.
In my new role as Chair, I will continue my commitment to assuring that the rich
experiences from which my own children have benefited remain available to many other
children for years to come, and I ask for your continued commitment as well.
On behalf of our Board of Directors, our staff, our children and their families, I thank
everyone who supported this event through their donations, sponsorships, ads and
attendance, but most importantly, for being an ongoing friend and supporter of FELS,
a truly unique and inspirational organization that has served our community for over a
century.

Remembering Judy Broder
Remembering Judy Broder
For nearly three decades, starting in
1989, Judy Broder served on the FELS
board and was clear and consistent
about the role she wanted to play.
During her 26 years on the Board, Judy served
in many leadership positions and was our 2003
Gala honoree. For more years than anyone can
remember, Judy co-chaired the Special Events
Food Committee with Helene Rosenfeld.
Gala 1992 (Judy far right)
“It was important to her that
FELS events were enjoyable,
memorable and well attended
so supporters would look
forward to returning to
them every year,” said
George Broder, Judy’s
husband of 53 years.
Gala 2002
Judy and George
George and Judy Gala 1992
Gala 2011
“Using her innate creativity, excellent taste and attention to detail, she
accomplished her goal. Like any pro, Judy made event planning seem
effortless though, in reality, she’d spend countless hours behind the scenes
making sure everything was perfect,” he continued. This past December, we
lost her. “It’s hard to imagine putting future board events together without
Judy,” said board member Ilene Garlin who joined the board because
of Judy’s excitement for and passion about FELS. “Judy and George’s
generosity to FELS was an inspiration to (my husband) Tom and me.”
We enjoyed working together all these years
and affectionately became known as the foodies,
commented Rosenfeld. “Judy was always
very confident about what she was doing and
whenever she became a part of an organization,
she was fully committed, doing whatever she
could to benefit them,” she continued.
Judy and Helene
“She loved children,” said Jill Steinberg, Judy’s
daughter, “and wanted them to have the same
opportunities that she and my father were
fortunate enough to provide for my brother
and me. Her deep love for her children and
grandchildren was obvious. They were precious
and so were other children. Nothing was more
important than our children – our future. Her
commitment to FELS was apparent and she was
so proud when she was honored at the 14th
Annual Love Our Kids Gala which my father
branded 17 years ago and still prevails today.”
For over 16 years, a piece of toddler equipment that Judy and George Broder
dedicated in memory of their son who passed away in infancy still stands in the
Paley Early Learning Center’s playground. Bringing joy and the opportunity for
much needed exercise to our “little ones” is just a small part of Judy’s legacy.
Giving us a model for and mentoring others about how to have a successful
gala will continue for years to come helping to ensure that FELS and FELS kids
prosper for years to come.
(l to r: Gala 2013: George and Judy, Helene and Lester
Rosenfeld,8 Irene and Tom Garlin)

Scott and Andi Barsky, Honorary Chairs
Andi and I are pleased to be Honorary Chairs
of this special evening and proud to honor
a man who has dedicated over 19 years
to Federation Early Learning Services,
Ronald Perilstein.
My own board service to FELS started in
1988. I knew my commitment to providing
excellence in early childhood education would
be enhanced by bringing Ron onto our Board.
I approached Ron by saying, “Can you help
me out for a little and sit on a committee”; promising him that it wouldn’t
take up too much of his time. Well, almost two decades and countless
hours later, it is only fitting that we thank and acknowledge the important
mark Ron has made on our organization. He has helped us identify and
focus on priorities, setting the bar high and fulfilling our goals. FELS has
benefited from his vision, his determination and courage. I am privileged
to call Ron a good friend and have him as a fellow board member.
A Special Thank You to those whose hard work and dedication went into
making this event a success: my fellow Board Members including, Auction
Chairs Gail Rosenberg and Sandy Axelrod; Food and Décor Committee
Helene Rosenfeld, Jill Kleeman and Ilene Garlin, and most importantly,
the FELS staff.
We also consider ourselves fortunate to have you, our friends, here
supporting quality early childhood education. YOU help the organization
provide high quality early childhood education under Jewish auspices for
over 100 years at eight centers throughout the Delaware Valley.
A special thank you to our Guest Speaker, Rabbi David Wolpe, whose
spiritual understanding and keen insights will inform and energize us all.
We hope that you enjoy this wonderful evening of celebration.

As the parent of a young child, I’ve seen
firsthand how important quality early learning
is in a child’s life. Research shows that
investments in early childhood education pay
off tremendously. From cost savings in
special education spending and social services
to reduced incarceration rates, we know that it’s
crucial to get it right in the first five years.
In fact, for every dollar spent on high-quality
early education, there is a $1.79 return on
investment generated in local economic activity.
And most importantly, children who have
access to high-quality early education are more likely to graduate from high
school on time, obtain and retain a job and earn a higher family-sustaining
wage. The evidence is resounding.
At United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey, we’re
committed to supporting quality early learning and ensuring children across
our region enter kindergarten ready to learn because we know it works.
Through Success By 6® United Way provides resources to help child care
centers build and sustain high quality, resulting in thousands more children
from targeted neighborhoods prepared to succeed in school each year.
Additionally, United Way serves as one of the founding partners of the Pre-K
for PA campaign, utilizing our unique position to advocate for policy change
at all levels of government to ensure all 3- and 4-year-olds in Pennsylvania
have access to high-quality pre-k.
We do not do this work alone. Partnerships with education leaders like FELS,
which has been a steadfast ally in our mission to improve lives for more than
50 years, are what allow us to bring high-quality early learning experiences
to more of our youngest learners throughout the region, preparing them to
enter school ready to learn.
These experiences are a necessity for all children to achieve in school and
later in life. It’s time to provide our children and future leaders with the start
they deserve. Educators and researchers have done their part. We know what
works, and we know it can be done.

Making a Difference
PROUD ACCOMPLISHMENTS
•Will serve over 1,150 children this year in eight centers and two after
school programs; 50% living at or below the poverty line; 49% living
in single parent households
•Six centers maintained a Keystone STAR 4 rating, the highest
designation possible in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Quality
Initiative
•Five centers remained accredited by the National Association for the
Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Only 8% of all early childhood
programs in the United States have achieved this prestigious and
highly regarded designation
Making a Difference
LITERACY
Developing an appreciation for reading and writing maximizes a child’s
chance to excel in school. Our literacy programs foster imagination and
creativity. Our curriculum also teaches the early literacy skills necessary for
school readiness such as comprehension, phonemic awareness and
vocabulary. Children learn to listen, think critically and discuss while building
language skills, providing them with the foundation for future learning.
•Assisted more than 23,000 families through our Child Care
Information Services Northeast, which provides resource and referral
services and subsidized child care assistance to low-income families
•Successfully integrated over 200 children with special needs into our
programs
•Awarded $90,000 in scholarship assistance to families in need so
parents could keep their children enrolled in a quality Jewish early
childhood education program while working to keep their families
economically independent
•Raised over $430,000 to improve facilities, enhance programs for
children and promote staff development and retention
•Continued our partnership with the School District of Philadelphia to
provide services to 103 children in our Pre-K Counts and Head Start
classrooms
•Two Teachers recognized by the Howard and Terri Abrams Foundation
for making a significant difference in the lives of children with special
needs
•Excellent staff retention record; 68 staff have been employed over ten
years; 16 of whom have been employed for over twenty years

HEALTHY HABITS
JEWISH HERITAGE
Research continues to support that nutrition and physical activity
play a critical role in the cognitive, emotional and behavioral development
of children. To ensure we are meeting these needs, our curriculum includes
healthy cooking projects, active playgrounds, fitness enrichment programs
and balanced snacks.
“Since our children have been at the Lokoff Center, they are more
aware of their Jewish identity. I make more of an effort to celebrate
Shabbat on Friday night. I am always amazed that they know so much
about our Jewish heritage and am delighted about the attitudes that
they have developed. I know that these are things that they will carry
them with them for the rest of their lives.”
FELS preserves and enhances the Jewish identity of our children and their
families, which is an integral part of our curriculum. Our rich Jewish
environments and programs create a sense of community and significantly
impact the Jewish identity and practice of the entire family. By providing
workshops and holiday programs for families, we educate, support and
enrich their own knowledge and facilitate celebrating their heritage.
These activities help our culturally diverse families understand
and appreciate each other’s differences.

SCHOLARSHIPS
Our dedication to supporting our families, particularly during financially
challenging years, has not wavered. Through generous donor support we
have been able to provide over 100 scholarships this year alone, ensuring the
children receive a high quality early childhood education.
“The education my son receives far exceeds my expectations. As a single
mother and the only means of support, I only want to provide the best
for him. This scholarship allows me to continue to provide him the best of
everything and to help him be the best human being he can be. The first
five years of a child’s life are the most important and this assistance helps
make those years matter by making quality care affordable. Thank you!”

STAFF DEVELOPMENT
Through comprehensive staff development programs, our teachers and
administrators remain current with new technology and best practices in early
childhood education. Our staff development programs meet the gold
standards on state and national levels, continually surpassing state
licensing standards. Our teachers distinguish themselves and
our organization by winning prestigious awards like the
Terri Lynne Lokoff/Children’s Tylenol National Child Care Teachers Award.

SPECIAL NEEDS
CAMP
FELS continues to maintain our long and proud history of enrolling children
with special medical, developmental, neurological and behavioral needs.
Teachers working in tandem with our Director of Child Development design
techniques to provide the optimal inclusion of children with special needs
into typical classroom settings.
Our centers feature summer programming that keeps education in the
limelight while featuring numerous outdoor activities, weekly themes and
for many centers, time in the pool. Camp Woodlight at Paley offers a safe,
stimulating and welcoming environment for our year-round children and
many school-age children from the community who return year after year.
Field trips, service projects and enrichment specialists comprise our unique
summer all-day programming which is so important to many of the working
parents who count on FELS.

OUR FUTURE
FELS meets and maintains the highest standards set nationally through the
National Association for the Education of Young Children and from the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Keystone STARS Quality Initiative Program
ensuring our children are set on the right path to succeed.
Decades of research show that children who enter kindergarten ready to
learn are better positioned to read at grade level by the end of third grade,
graduate from high school, remain employed and are less likely
to engage in criminal activities.
Message from Auction Chairs, Gail Rosenberg and Sandra Axelrod
As Auction Chairs and also FELS Board Members
for over 20 years, we want to thank those who
have charitably donated items to our Love Our
Kids Gala Silent Auction.
