April 29, 2010

I’m very pleased to extend my congratulations to Phil Rosenshein and Ben Sauder as they arehonoured by the annual Negev Dinner.

As someone who is fiercely proud of her local community and her national heritage, I am alwaysthrilled to recognize and salute these qualities in others. They are part of what make our nation,and our city, so strong and so resilient.

As I write, we’re not long past the celebration that Jews and Christians share so profoundly,Pesach and Easter. As I reflected on this, I came across some words from Rabbi Daniel Greenthat spoke powerfully to me.

He begins, remarkably enough, with a reflection on matzah!

And then he writes: “Pesach teaches us one essential lesson in life: Hardship can and must betransformed into opportunity. Life’s challenges have the ability to either crush us or catapult usto entirely new dimensions. Matzah is the quintessential symbol of freedom precisely becausewe learned from our hardship. Not only were our shackles of bondage unchained, but thosedark moments of our past became our springboard of strength for the future. We emerged witha unique perspective and were able to truly appreciate and fight for goodness. This innerstrength and resilience has come to define the Jew throughout the ages.”

As the Member of Provincial Parliament for Hamilton Mountain, let me offer my gratitude, Philand Ben, that you have contributed so much to the strength and resilience of our communityover the years, and to join with the Jewish National Fund of Hamilton in honouring your longhistory of support.

The son of Jewish immigrants, Henry Winkler was born

in New York City in 1945. The synagogue that the

Winkler family attended was built by Holocaust

escapees and survivors.

From the age of seven, it was Henry Winkler’s dream

to become an actor. Today, he is one of the most

recognized actors worldwide. He is best known for his

Golden Globe award-winning role as “The Fonz” on

the hit comedy series Happy Days (1974-84).

In earlier years Henry struggled with academics,

eventually diagnosed with dyslexia as an adult.

Remarkably Henry was able to overcome the challenges of

this learning disability and succeed in higher education.

He now holds a Bachelor’s Degree and an Honorary PhD

in Hebrew Literature from Emerson College, and a Master

of Fine Arts from the Yale School of Drama.

In the mid-1980’s Henry Winkler shifted his focus

from acting, to producing and directing. He served as

Executive Producer for a long list of successful shows,

including Hollywood Squares and MacGyver.

Inspired by his own learning struggles, in 2003 Henry

Winkler and co-author Lin Oliver started writing a series

of children’s books entitled Hank Zipzer: the World’s

Most Amazing Under-Achiever. His titles have appeared on

many best seller lists including The New York Times.

Henry Winkler, in spite of his fame, has always managed

to stay well-grounded and enjoys a life-long commitment

to helping others. He is the founding member of

Children’s Action Network, and serves on countless worthy

organizations including United Friends of Children,

Cerebral Palsy Telethon, Epilepsy Foundation of America,

Toys for Tots, and The Special Olympics. His significant

contributions have been recognized by organizations

such as B’nai Brith and The United Nations.

Henry Winkler lives in Los Angeles with Stacey, his wife

of over thirty years. They have three children.

The proceeds from this evening’s dinner

in tribute to

will go towards developing a much-needed green space

in the middle of the town of Hatsor HaGelilit

in the Upper Galilee.

A biography of

Phil Rosenshein

The son of Orthodox

parents, Phil Rosenshein

was born in Poland in

1922. He and his family

came to Canada the

following year and

settled in Hamilton.Phil continues to spend his life involved in

the Jewish community. As a young man of

nineteen, he met Rose Brooks at a United

Jewish Appeal dance, two years later in 1943

they were married, and in 1944 their

daughter Louise was born. Today Phil and

Rose are the proud grandparents of three

grandchildren, their lives further blessed

with the arrival of a great-granddaughter

twenty years ago.

↑ Phil at the Wailing Wall,1987

↑ Phil & Rose, 1943

↑ Phil & Rose’s 50th, 1993


Phil continues to spend

his life involved in the

Jewish community. In 1942 Phil entered the work-force by

taking a job in an auto parts store. By

1947, after just a few years in the business,

Phil opened his own store — Midtown

Auto and Home Appliance — in

Hamilton. Through hard work and

perseverance Phil built a very successful

business, opened a second store in

Brantford, then a third in Kitchener. In

1973 Phil decided to sell out to a larger

company and become semi-retired.

During that time, Phil invested in Effort

Trust with Dr. Arthur Weisz. Around that

same time, he bought a property in West

Hollywood Florida where he could begin

to enjoy some of his well-deserved free

time on some of Florida’s beautiful golf

courses. Over the years, Phil has always

enjoyed fishing. In the early years on Lake

Erie catching perch — and later on in

Georgian Bay catching Northern Pike. He

still carries fond memories of those times.

Over the years, no matter how busy

Phil’s life had become with the challenges

of raising a family and running a

successful business, he always made

time to give back to his community.

For over four decades, Phil has been

extensively involved in the Hamilton

Jewish Community through numerous

organizations. Phil’s long and successful

career as an enthusiastic fundraiser began

in 1948 with an 8-year involvement in

the United Jewish Appeal. Phil spent

nearly two decades working tirelessly for

B’nai Brith, increasing their membership

and raising hundreds of thousands

of dollars over the years. He was

instrumental in the creation of the B’nai

Brith Sports Night, and his hard work

and contributions have been recognized

with ten award plaques and a trophy.

For over two decades, Phil has also

played a key role in the leadership of the

Beth Jacob Synagogue. For twenty-two

years Phil headed the Beth Jacob Finance

Committee and was the shul’s Vice

President/Treasurer for twelve years.

Among Phil’s many talents is his ability

to lead synagogue services. Remarkably

for over forty years Phil expertly led Beth

Jacob’s morning worship service every

Wednesday and Friday.

When the Beverly Golf & Country Club

was facing financial difficulties in 1991,

Phil came to the rescue with his abilities

and intent to raise funds. In just one

week, Phil raised the appreciable amount

of $900,000 and managed to divert the

club from its financial problems.

Phil proudly offers that....

“It is very rewarding to be so involved

in the community and a privilege to

work with so many wonderful people”.

Phil’s long history of community

involvement continues with four decades

to the present as an active fundraiser for

the Jewish National Fund. The unique

‘Bloomfield Award’ earned for his

remarkable contributions to the JNF is

proudly displayed in the dining room

of his home. Phil has also raised large

amounts for Shalom Village and

generously donated a room in the

Alzheimer’s Ward. Phil proudly offers

that.... “It is very rewarding to be so

involved in the community and a

privilege to work with so many

wonderful people”.

Guided by the example set by his

parents — having grown up in a home

where the JNF “pushka” was a fixture —

Phil downplays the magnitude of his

contribution to the community and

simply says “We live in a blessed

country and it is just natural to want to

give back”.

Biography


A biography of

Ben Sauder

Ben Sauder was born in

Hamilton in 1922 to

parents Nathan and

Rebecca. They immigrated

to Canada by way of

Galicia Austria to New

York during the First

World War when Nathan

was brought to Hamilton

to make army uniforms.Nathan and Rebecca were founding members of

the Adas Israel Anshei Sefard (on Cannon

Street). Leading by example, they instilled in

their five children a strong respect for Judaism

and a sense of responsibility for its continuity.

Ben is a devoted and caring brother to his sisters

Molly, Clara and Sara, and he shared a very

special bond with his brother Max, who sadly

passed in 1978.

↑ The Family at the Concord in the Catskills, New York, 1981

↑ Ben & Shirley, 1955

↑ Ben, 1969

↑ Shelly, 2001 ↑ Wendy, 2001


In the late 1930s, Ben joined his father

and siblings in the family coal business

which at that time was being delivered

to homes and considered a ‘preferred’

industry. After the war, Ben was

responsible for starting up the Fuel Oil

Division. Ben successfully ran the oil

business with Vern Thornborrow for

several years, and in 1957 they bought

a stone quarry in Vineland, Ontario. In

the 1960s, Ben had the good fortune to

meet Arthur Weisz, a prominent real

estate broker. Ben joined Arthur in

many successful ventures which

included a syndicated real estate

company which is still operating

today. What began as a business

relationship quickly grew into a

cherished and lasting friendship

between Ben and Arthur. It was through

Ben that Phil Rosenshein became

acquainted with Arthur.

Ben met Shirley Fauman in 1944 at a

Beth Jacob (known then as the Hunter

Street shul) Tea Dance. Two years later

Ben and Shirley were married, and

blessed with two daughters, Wendy in

1948 and Shelly in 1954. Sadly in

2005, just shy of their 60th wedding

anniversary, Shirley passed away.

Through decades of hard work and

perseverance, Ben’s accomplishments

are very impressive. His remarkable

résumé includes such titles as President

of the Hamilton Fuel Merchants

Association, Vice-president of Binkley

Investments, and many Directorships

including that of Effort Trust.

Throughout the years, while working

hard to raise a family and run successful

businesses, Ben remained tirelessly

committed to volunteering and giving

back to the community. Ben is proud to

say that he has been and will continue to

be a life-long member of Adas Israel and

over the years, has held various synagogue

leadership positions including Vice

President. In the late 1950’s Ben was a

strong supporter and key player in the

construction of the new building. The

Adas Israel, first established in 1914 on

Cannon Street in the old wooden

cottage, was rebuilt at that site in 1929.

In 1958 Rabbi Mordechai Green was

hired as the shul’s new spiritual leader.

After Max Hoffman passed away, Ben

partnered with Rabbi Green to gain

support and the necessary finances in

order to turn vision into reality. It took

an arduous effort, dedication and

perseverance to gain this support, secure

pledges and make collections. In 1959

the new Adas Israel was built in its

current location on Cline Avenue. To

this day, Ben values his close and special

relationship with Rabbi Green.

Ben is proud to have contributed his

efforts to several other worthy

organizations as well. He speaks fondly

of working closely over the decades with

life-long friend Phil Rosenshein on the

B’nai Brith Sports night, fundraising for

the Beverly Golf & Country Club, and

canvassing for the JNF, Shalom Village

and U.J.A.

When asked what drives him

to volunteer, Ben modestly

says “it is just a natural thing

to do. I’m proud of being

Jewish and it is important that

I do my share”. Those who

know Ben well believe that

he’s done more than ‘his share’.Presently Ben and his partner Fruma Kaufman enjoy

some well-deserved leisure time in Florida during the

winter, and the balance of the year in Hamilton.

Continuing to meet

Israel’s needs



The Jewish NationalFund – KerenKayemeth LeIsrael –was founded in 1901to purchase land forthe return of theJewish people to theirancient homeland. Inthe 109 years since its creation, theorganization hasworked tirelessly torestore the land,enhance and fosterenvironmental quality,and to nurtureZionist values.

The

JewishNational Fund

The KKL-JNF has always championed

the principle of sustainable development,

the meaning of which can be found

within the organization’s very name

‘Keren Kayemeth’ (‘kayamut’ is Hebrew

for sustainability). Its allocation of

lands and natural resources in Israel is

based on the use of ‘interest’ on the

‘principal’ that nature provides, together

with conscientious protection of that

‘principal’ for the future.

Since Israel achieved Statehood in

1948, KKL-JNF’s achievements have

included the planting of more than

240 million trees, reclaiming more than

300,000 acres of land for agriculture,

housing and industry, creating over

1,100 rural villages, building more

than 6500 kilometres of roads through

mountainous and desert terrain, and

establishing some 450 regional parks

throughout the country.

Largely as a result of the afforestation

program, Israel was the only country

in the world to have more trees at the

end of the 20th century than it did at

the beginning. These trees enrich and

conserve the soil against wind and

water erosion which is of paramount

importance in a semi-arid country

such as Israel.

KKL-JNF continues to plant about

3 million trees a year. The Canadian

Christian Forest is one of two major

projects recently started, located in

Beit Keshet in the central Galilee

region between Nazareth and Mount

Tabor, given its name in tribute to the

many Canadian Christians who share

a love for the land of Israel.

The second project forms part of the

KKL-JNF goal to roll back the desert in

part by creating a ‘green’ ring around

the city of Be’er Sheva in the Negev.


Already over 2,500 hectares of green

areas have been planted and it is

expected that this area will double in

size by 2018. The plants include a

mixture of eucalyptus, and broad-leafed

trees such as plum, carob, acacia and

terebinth. The development of this

green belt includes the rejuvenation and

rehabilitation of existing forested areas

as well as planting in new ones.

Israel continues to be acknowledged as

a world leader in water conservation

and recycling. Two thirds of Israel’s land

Israel continues to be acknowledged as a world leader in water

conservation and recycling. Two thirds of Israel’s land is desert

and there are only about 50 days of rainfall per year.

is desert and there are only about 50 days

of rainfall per year. Some parts of the

Negev are particularly arid receiving

only 25 mm of rain per year. JNF has

built over 2000 water reservoirs all

over the country with a total of more

than 100 million cubic metres —

about six percent of Israel’s annual

water consumption. Currently these

reservoirs help Israel recycle

approximately 75% of its waste water

and this has enabled the country to

create a thriving agricultural sector.

Over the years, reservoir technology has

become incomparably more effective

and sophisticated. This is attributed to

the Research and Development

conducted by KKL-JNF and its partners,

and the actual hands-on experience

while building them. Effluents — partly

purified sewage water — are stored in

reservoirs as well, instead of allowing

them to flow freely into the environment.

This prevents the pollution of rivers,

soil, and underground water sources as

well as the Mediterranean, Lake Kinneret,

the Dead Sea and the Red Sea.

The effluents, which contain many

fertilizers, are used for agricultural

irrigation in places with little rain,

enabling intensive and profitable

agriculture even in regions where

there would otherwise be no

agriculture at all. Now that water is

available, there can be two-and-a-half

growth cycles in a year.


The reservoirs are scattered all over

Israel and add beauty to the scenery,

provide a habitat for many birds and

fish, create ecological hubs, and also

provide an environment that delights

the eyes and the souls of local residents,

farmers, hikers and all other visitors.

An entirely new concept is being

developed in Kfar Saba’s Green Park

neighbourhood where Israel’s first

bio-filter system is being built thanks

to the persistence of Yaron Zinger,

an Israeli biotechnological engineering

graduate. His post-graduate studies

took him to Monash University in

Melbourne Australia to join a team of

researchers in collaboration of his

knowledge of biotechnology and their

knowledge of engineering.

The bio-filter system was built using

money from KKL-JNF Australia, as

well as KKL-JNF in Israel and the

municipalities of Holon, Bat Yam,

Yavne, Rehovot, Modi’in, Hadera,

Kfar Saba and Rana’na. It will utilize

rainwater collected from city streets

during the rainy season and recycle it

for municipal use. Using strands of

plants with an appetite for substances

which negatively affect water quality and

layers of water and soil, it absorbs

polluted run-off water from fuel

residues, heavy metals and nitrates,

and produces drinking-quality or

nearly drinking- quality water.

When similar systems are installed in

other sites along Israel’s coastal plain,

they will help restore the coastal aquifer

which has become increasingly polluted

over the past few decades through

overuse and lack of natural renewal.

Rainwater from city streets will be

absorbed into the aquifer during the

winter, and during the rest of the year

these bio-filter systems will achieve

their other goal — improvement of the

groundwater in wells which is of very

low quality because of its nitrate content.

Protection of natural resources and

ensuring the quality of life for all

residents of Israel and their descendants

continues to be one of KKL-JNF’s


environmental objectives. Sustainable

development constitutes the natural

continuation of the organization’s

historic role: protection of the land and

its development for the benefit of the

people, today and in the future.

KKL-JNF experts also continue to work

with people from other countries. In

January 2010 they hosted a number of

leading water specialists from Manitoba

for the Second Manitoba-Israel Water

Symposium. They continue to help

countries in Africa and elsewhere in their

struggle against the Gall Wasp — the

scourge of eucalyptus trees in many areas.

In March, KKL-JNF’s Director of

River Rehabilitation Avry Kadmon and

local Executive Director Franklin

Simkevitz went on a whirlwind tour

of Southern Ontario, stopping in

Windsor, London, Hamilton and

Waterloo to explain Israel’s solutions to

its scarce water resources, and how

KKL-JNF is prepared to share its

knowledge and expertise with other

countries around the world.

Environmental issues continue to

plague the planet and KKL-JNF is

always willing to share its knowledge

with others in order to improve life

for everyone. All these activities are

excellent examples of ways in which

Jews and non-Jews around the world

continue to partner with the people

of Israel in their common quest for

harmony, beauty, the highest quality of

life, and ultimately ‘shalom’ – peace.

Thank you for helping KKL-JNF

continue to turn vision into reality.

By Susan Merskey

Partnering with Israel in their common quest

The

ProjectHillel Landsman PARK


The JNF

is developing

a much-needed

green space

park area

situated in the

centre of town

with multi-

neighbourhood

accesses.

The HillelLandsman PARK

ProjectThe proceeds from this evening’s

Negev Dinner in tribute to Phil

Rosenshein and Ben Sauder will go

toward the development of a

community park in Hatsor HaGelilit.

Hatsor HaGelilit is a development

town in Northern Israel, located

in the Upper Galilee between Tsfat

and Rosh Pina. Hatsor HaGelilit was

founded in 1953 as an immigrant

town and over the years has struggled

economic and employment

challenges. With a population of

approximately 8,700 Hatsor HaGelilit

is somewhat ‘overshadowed’ by Rosh

Pina, its picturesque and more

prosperous neighbour.

The JNF is developing a much-needed

green space park area situated in the

centre of town with multi-neighbourhood

accesses. This recreation site, The

Hillel Landsman Park, is being named

after the first head of the Hatsor

HaGelilit local council.

The Hillel Landsman Park will provide

a myriad of leisure and recreational

opportunities for town residents

regardless of age or background.

Five entrances will lead to the park

from surrounding neighbourhoods,

ensuring easy access. The park will

serve a broad cross-section of the

community: for children; a large

playground complete with all the

equipment needed for fun and healthy

activity, for families; a picnic area with

tables and play facilities, for older

members of the community; a number

of access paths including shaded areas,

benches, and a variety of plants to

create a colourful environment that

changes with the seasons.

in Hatsor HaGelilit


In the central area of the park there will

be a lawn suitable for community

gatherings and events, featuring a round

stage. The central path through the

park will be paved with stone, while the

other paths will be coated with asphalt.

KKL-JNF assigns particular importance

to the nurturing and support of

peripheral communities around Israel.

The aim is to improve the quality of

life, retain the younger generation, and

attract newcomers. This project will

enhance the sense of civic pride and

provide space where residents of all

backgrounds can mingle and enjoy

their leisure and recreation time.

The Hillel Landsman Park in Hatsor

HaGelilit will enhance the community

by providing its residents with a much-

needed centre for recreational activity.

Many thanks to all supporters of the

2010 Hamilton Negev Dinner who

have helped turn this dream into reality.

You did an amazing job …we could not have done it without you!

To volunteer for our Blue Box program, Tu Bi’Shevat festivitiesor any of our other activities, please call: 905 527-5516

Thank You To All Of This Year’sJewish National Fund Volunteers


The Jewish National Fund of Hamilton would like to express its gratitude to thosevery special people and organizations without whose help, the Negev Dinner would

be nearly impossible to accomplish. Our heartfelt thanks go out to the following whohave worked so diligently or provided services to make this evening a success.....

The leadership of the JNF also acknowledges the two extremely committed women who work in our JNF office: Sonia Jacob; our Administrative Coordinator who manages to deal with so many aspects and challenges of the job always with elegance and calm, and; Roberta Katz;

our Office Assistant who is always positive, pleasant, helpful, and puts everyone at ease. KOL HAKAVOD AND TODAH RABAH!!

Israel Vukmir – The State of Israel is richer because of the efforts of those like Israel Vukmir. He gives ofhimself without question and is fully committed to the Land of Israel.

Lorne Gaffe and Hamilton Store Fixtures – Lorne and his staff provide a safe place for our Negev Dinnerdishes. They help us keep track of inventory and shipping to the Negev Dinners in Hamilton, Windsor, andto other venues for special occasions.

Violet Byl at Effort Trust – Violet gives generously of her time coordinating and arranging venues for ourtelethons, and providing security duty to the office after-hours.

Mark Draak and Wide Eyed Communications – flowers abound in the wide eyes of their creative minds. Theideas continue to flourish and flow in abundance.

Irene Gaudet and Chef Alan – and the Hamilton Convention Centre for consistently delivering excellentfood and guest-services.

Jennifer Howe – of Perfect Sphere Productions never says 'no', and for whom no challenge is too great.Jennifer masters the agenda of the 'Dinner' in addition to her numerous other responsibilities.

Telav Communications – for their ever-reliable AV support.

Dave Katz & Sam MacBeath – the many aspects of our 'dinners' are largely taken for granted. Much workgoes into transporting, sorting and assembling dinnerware for large numbers of dinner guests. Dave and Samprovide expert handling of such tasks.

Charles Kravetsky – is meticulous and dedicated to koshering the kitchen in which our 'dinners' are made.It is Charles' responsibility to ensure that all of our food and its preparation adheres to the laws of Kashrut.

Lawrence Yanover – providing expert photographic services, capturing the visual essence of our NegevDinner and the tribute to our honourees.

Eric Lynes – Biltmore Hats - upon our request to provide hats for our decor, simply and without hesitation- delivered them to us.

… and our team of dedicated volunteers whose names appear elsewhere in this book. It is reassuring to know that so many share our special love for Israel and the

Jewish National Fund.


The Canadian Christian Forest!

Now you can plant trees in the Jewish National Fund Canadian Christian Forest.

Located in the central Galilee region, between Nazareth and Mount Tabor, this picturesque forest has been designated as the Canadian Christian Forest in tribute to our Canadian Christian

friends who share a love for the Land of Israel.

Celebrate a special occasion or commemorate the loss of a friend or loved one.

Choose from a selection of beautiful cards and add your own message.

Now, when you visit Israel, you will be able to see the

Canadian Christian Forest in Beit Keshet in the Galilee.

To plant trees, call toll free 866 527-5516 or locally in Hamilton, 905 527-5516 or on-line at www.jnf.ca/ontario
