Everyone who donates to our ongoing 2026 Personal Giving campaign is invited to our Personal Giving Thank-You Brunch on Sunday, May 17, at 9 a.m., in Denville. Co-chairing the campaign are Dorothy Cohen and Anne Gorman. Our special guest speaker for the brunch will be Rabbi James Feder, assistant rabbi at Temple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield, spotlighting the songwriter/musician/poet Leonard Cohen’s Jewish sources.

Novelist to Offer Insights into ‘Telling Your Story’

Do you have a story to tell? Perhaps it’s a fictional tale that’s been floating around in your mind, or maybe you want to share your own personal story.

Novelist and book publicist Andrea J. Stein will give a fascinating talk, called “Telling Your Story,” for the Personal Giving Thank-You Brunch, sponsored by National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), West Morris Section. She will illustrate her points with insights from her own writing and publishing journey. The brunch, which is open to all donors to the organization’s Personal Giving campaign, will be held at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 8, at a private home in Morris County. Personal Giving is coordinated by Dorothy Cohen of Denville and Anne Gorman of Rockaway.
