The Jewish Pavilion received its first grant ever! Until now, all funding for the Jewish Pavilion came from individuals and businesses. The capacity -building mini-grant was awarded by Compassion Florida, a program managed by the Governor's Volunteer Florida Foundation. The program was designed to assist Florida's grassroots and faith-based community organizations achieve greater ability to deliver sound programming, increase organizational sustainability, improve efficiency and strengthen their organizational and leadership muscles.

Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother"... The Jewish Pavilion is creating a keepsake tribute book where members of the community will have the opportunity to honor and or memorialize their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. It will be a beautiful, leather- bound book that anyone would be proud to display on one's coffee table in the living room and purchase copies to share with future generations. This is a wonderful and inexpensive opportunity for community members to honor their family members in a lasting memory book. The project is being chaired by Fabienne Kaplan who has become the official photographer for Jewish Pavilion activities. "The brochure, templates and book were designed by Joanne Fink of Lakeside Design.
