Friday, March 18,1983 The Jewish Floridian of Tampa Page 3 A Special Message to Tampa Women TJSS Director Resigns Dear Friends: In Campaign '83, we are re- sponding to the request for in- creased giving to the Regular Campaign and to the Special Fund. There is still time, until March 31, to reach capacity giv- ing. As women, we wish for equal opportunity: to do all that we can, to be all that we can. With equal opportunity, how- ever, comes a demand: equal re- sponsibility. We women are half the Jewish population of the United States. The clear demand made on us, and the overriding demand which we must make of ourselves is: striving towards equality in pledges and in cash collection. We are many thousands, the women who are committed, active, involved. And we have a gift which has always been ours: I the ability to reach out, to draw others in, to extend the circle. Therefore, our effort in this and in future campaigns has to be twofold: 1) to double and triple and quadruple the number of women young, middle-aged, elderly who give money, time, knowledge, and skills to United Jewish Appeal campaigns; 2) to effect the cash sum we collect, until it matches the sum collected by men not to compete with them but to demonstrate incon- testably that we pull our equal share of the load. And another thought. The Jewish people in all times in all places have been victimized and have, to some extent, ab- sorbed, internalized, and reacted to that judgement by seeing Roots Mission to New York City Join the Women's Division on a "Roots" Mission to New York City, May 3-4-5.

Instead, let the word go forth from women, all Jewish women: The Jewish people are not and will never again be victims. We are a strong and proud people. A nation. We have sur- vived and transcended all that has happened to us, from ancient times till this day. We, the Jewish people, have been a maayan, a source, a well- spring, not only to each other but to the entire world. We shall con- tinue to be.

Karpay, Swarzman and Tribble in their announcement of the new group, stated "The Net- work was formed for Jewish working women to share with one another experience, talent and imagination.

Anne Thai resigns as TJSS Exe- cutive Director. Anne Thai, Executive Director of Tampa Jewish Social Service since its development as a profes- sional agency, has submitted her resignation effective June 1, 1983. "The last 8'/ years have been an incredible opportunity for me to grow and learn as the agency has grown and expanded," said Thai. "I'm very grateful to the community for allowing me to do this. It's time for something new for both me and the agency." Thai said she will open a private practice for physhothera- py and human services consult- ation. Additionally, she will be working for Playmakers in mana- gement and development. Play- makers is the theatrical group which Thai currently heads as president. "I'm not leaving Tampa!" Thai made very clear. Immediate past president of the Tampa Jewish Social Ser- vices, Paula Zielonka said, "Anne will be greatly missed by the Tampa Jewish Social Service Agency. She is a very efficient executive. In her eight years she has brought TJSS from a volun- teer agency, serving only a few, to a professional agency serving a wide spectrum of the community. The agency is well respected and Ls considered a model by the Unviersity of South Florida as the way a social service agency should be run. It will be hard to replace Anne. There are lots of social workers, but one with talent as an execu- tive, too. will be hard to find." "I'm sorry our Tampa Jewish Social Service Executive Director has decided to go into the private sector," said Tampa Jewish Federation president Michael Levine. "She's done an out- standing job. We wish her much luck in her new endeavors."
