Keeping AJC Secure: Madoff Fraud Fallout

AJC has received many queries from members and supporters about the repercussions of the Bernard Madoff scandal, which has caused such pain and hardship for so many. Thankfully, AJC had no direct involvement with Madoff and his firm. In fact, AJC’s Investment Committee rejected any investments with him. Meanwhile, an AJC affiliate, Thanks to Scandinavia, which has its own investment policy, was hurt. It had about $1.5 million, or one-quarter, of its assets with Madoff.

Now is the time to show your faith in AJC and to help secure our future.  DONATE HERE.
