Organizations
Jaffa Institute
The Jaffa Institute was established in 1982 by Dr. David Portowicz and Col. Ze'ev (Zonik) Shaham as a private, non-profit, multi-service social agency to assist the city of Jaffa’s severely disadvantaged children and their families. Our mission is to provide educational, nutritional, therapeutic, and social enrichment programs that assist children in developing positive attitudes and skills to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty in the impoverished communities of Jaffa, South Tel Aviv, and Bat Yam in Israel.
Big Bend

The Big Bend Jewish Social Club (BBJSC) is a program sponsored by the Tallahassee Jewish Federation established to provide opportunities for senior members of the Jewish Community to meet in a social setting and enjoy each other’s company.
The BBJSC usually meets four times a year with a goal of providing various social, educational and cultural programs.
