ORT JET Thanks Consultants
July 2009

In today’s tough economical times the work of ORT JET is an asset to the Jewish community. At a recent breakfast held, ORT JET honoured and thanked the ORT JET consultants for giving of their time in fulfilling Judaism’s sincerest form of charity by aiding a person in need so that they may become self supporting. The breakfast was attended by over 130 top business people most of whom give of their time to assist Jewish businesses in need.

ORT JET consultants, Grant Devries and Mel Stamelman each won ‘The Sheldon Cohen, ORT JET and Sasfin ‘Consultant of the year’ award.” The recipients of this award were chosen because of their dedication and commitment to the businesses that they assist. The awards where presented by the late Sheldon’s wife Lesley and his father Jack Cohen. Mel Stamelman said that “It was a privilege to be able to assist the individuals and it enables him to work with people to bring them to their full potential.”

In the Chief Rabbi, Dr Warren Goldstein address, he commended ORT JET on the fantastic work that they are doing in the community and that “he was standing on Holy ground because there were so many mitzvahs in the room.”

Guest of honour Tony Leon was “interviewed” by Sasfin’s David Shapiro, and the result was a stimulating, informative and inspirational morning. Tony Leon was relaxed, sharing his views and opinions of the past and current state of the Nation.
