Jayne & Lee Seidman

I was blessed with parents who taught me, by example, that I should do justice, love mercy and walk humbly with my God.  They also taught me to maintain a sense of humor, to be positive and to look for the best in each person I met.  I am at my best when I remember their teachings.  My family – all four grandparents – came to Cleveland 120 years ago.  During that time, the city and our Jewish community have given us the unlimited opportunity for personal and financial growth.  It is our pleasure to share our good fortune with others through the Federation.

The harder we worked

The luckier we got

The luckier we got

The more we gave

The more we gave

The happier we became

Our advice:  Share the blessings of your life with friends, family and all of those you reach through your hands and your heart.
