SPRING UJA DRIVES RAISED MORE MONEY THIS YEAR
NEW YORK—More money has been raised this year by many trJA, campaigns in.^ Jewish communities in various parts of the North American continent, it was reported in the June issue of The Jewish Coihmimity, organ of the Council of Federations 'and Welfare Funds. In two thirds of all the cities which have conducted campaigns this past spring the Results achieved will equal or better their 1954 totals.
nuchas Saphir, Director of the Israel Treasury, reported a 15 percent increase in UJA ifitums on his return to Jerusalem from United States last week.
The results of this year's spring campaigns have reversed a downward trend in fund-raising which has been going on since 1948.
Improvement of campaign results is said to have.come about b&cause of (1) improved economic conditions; (2) re-appraisal of campaign structure and methods in many cities; (3) pressing human needs.
Renewed emphasis was given to the primacy of the united campaign which in many cities is conducted through a Jewish Federation or Welfare Fund. New leadership was brought in to reinforce the old, more workers were enrolled and campaign spirit was the best since 1948.
Some cities singled out certain groups of prospects for spe
cial attention — prospects with the greatest potential for increases.
More attefition was paid to pre-campaign education and explanation of the campaign needs at the personal level, often through intimate small-scale par-' lor meetings.
In contrast with recent years, top level givers increased, or at least held the line. Campaign themes were adapted to the totality of the needs as well as to the particular interests of the contributors.
