CINCINNATI, Dec. 30, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Saul Schottenstein Foundation B, Jonathan L. Harris Memorial Philanthropic Fund, and Susan and Jeffrey P. Harris Family Foundation have made a grant to Jewish Federation of Cincinnati ("JFC") in support of its services to care for those in need, rescue those in harm's way, and renew and strengthen the Jewish community in Cincinnati.
JFC is the largest Jewish non-profit fundraising organization in Cincinnati, charged with building community resources, leadership and trust. JFC was founded on the Jewish people's commitment to "tzedekah"- that it is righteous and just to 'do right' by others. Jeffrey P. Harris, Saul Schottenstein's nephew and a trustee of all of the foundations, believes the contribution furthers the foundations' mission to partner with organizations that foster human acceptance, organic oneness of life, and helping people experience their common humanity.
The Saul Schottenstein Foundation B was established in 2009 by the Estate of Saul S. Schottenstein. Visit the Saul Schottenstein Foundation B Web site at www.saulschottensteinfoundationb.org.
