UJA-Federation's Larchmont-Mamaroneck's Women's Philanthropy Kicks Off Campaign Year

UJA-Federation of New York’s Larchmont-Mamaroneck Women’s Philanthropy featured professional organizer Leslie Josel of Larchmont at an event to kick off its 2014 Annual Campaign. Josel launched Order Out of Chaos, her organizing consultancy business, in 2004 after her son was diagnosed with ADHD and other learning differences. 

The women also learned about the vital work of UJA-Federation and the Larchmont-Mamaroneck community’s involvement in making it possible. 

“It’s not just an exercise, it’s not just because philanthropy is the right thing to do, it’s not only because we want to teach our kids about [charity] — although all of that is true,” said Nancy Kanterman of Mamaroneck, Larchmont-Mamaroneck area chair. “We do what we do because it matters. It really does.”
