Funding for the 2026 Robert & Jennie Chortek Annual Seminar was provided by the Irving L. Chortek Charitable Fund in Memory of Robert and Jennie Chortek. This new annual speaker seminar was created through the extraordinary generosity of Irving L. Chortek and his over $1 million 10-year commitment to the Jewish Community Relations Council of the Milwaukee Jewish Federation.
The seminar’s purpose is to bring together diverse members of our community – representing many faith traditions, cultures, and backgrounds – around a topic of shared interest. Each year’s program aims to inspire and educate on bridge-building, mutual support, and strengthened collective efforts to ensure all people are treated with dignity and respect.
