“Both professionally and personally, it is satisfying to me to recognize the growth of our Foundation through the efforts that Melanie has made over the past twelve years,” said Chuck Berkowitz, President and CEO of the Jewish Home Family and JHR’s Executive Vice President. “With the restructuring of the Jewish Home Family entities, it seemed like the perfect time to recognize her efforts by promoting her to the newly created position of Executive Director.”
Steven Morey Greenberg, Esq., President of the Jewish Home Foundation, said, “for many years Melanie has been instrumental in our successful efforts to raise the capital funds necessary to make both the Jewish Home Assisted Living and the Jewish Home at Rockleigh into realities, and also to raise the funds each year to enable our residents to enjoy the high quality of care which they deserve. We operate in a challenging environment. Melanie serves as an important link to all of our supporters in the community.”
