The Jewish Community Relations Council of the Youngstown Area Jewish Federation again participated in the annual Canfield Fair. The booth focused on Israel and attracted a high volume of visitors, said Nic Bush, Federation development & community relations manager. The booth included facts about and pictures of Israel and highlighted offerings by the Jewish Community Center, Jewish Family & Community Services, and Senior Living by Youngstown Area Jewish Federation. Visitors were provided with pins, T-shirts, DVDs, maps, bracelets, candy, and Bamba.
“Those who stopped by the booth were interested to learn more about Israel, and many let us know that they couldn’t wait to go for the first time or would visit in the next few months,” added Bush.
