Groundbreaking set for new JFSA/JCF home

A groundbreaking ceremony for a new building that will house the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona and the Jewish Community Foundation will be held Sunday, Dec. 4 at 4 p.m. in the northwest corner of the Tucson Jewish Community Center parking lot at River and Dodge Roads.

The project, which will be named the Harvey and Deanna Evenchik Center for Jewish Philanthropy, is being launched as the Federation celebrates its 70th year.

The event, which will acknowledge donors to the capital campaign for the building, will feature live music by the Armon Bizman band (the band’s name is Hebrew for “A Castle in Time”).
