When the United Jewish Federation of Princeton Mercer Bucks hosts Super Sunday 2007 next month, 16-year-old Monica Blitzer will be back with bells on, joining her friends and family in calling on the community to give generously to federation’s annual campaign.

The fund-raising phonathon is set for Dec. 3, from 9 a.m., to 8 p.m. at the Merrill Lynch complex, 1400 Merrill Lynch Dr. off Scotch Road in Hopewell.

“Last year, I knew I was helping the community, but what that meant to me, I had no clue,” the teen said as she sat in the living room of her East Windsor home. “But when I walked in and saw the headsets — it’s really exciting. You’re there with a few of your friends. You put the headset on. And after the third call, you’re kind of getting the hang of it.

“It’s fun, it’s helping the community, and it’s easy,” she said. “The more teens that go from your community, the more fun you have.” As she wrote in a letter that recently went out to all the confirmation students in the area, “I had a blast hanging out with my friends and meeting new people while giving back to the community.”

That remark seemed to sum up the spirit of Super Sunday 2007 as Monica sat down recently to discuss the day with her mother, Jerri Blitzer, who is chairing the teen component of the day; Emile Josephson of West Windsor, federation associate campaign chair; and Debbie Freedman, Women’s Campaign liaison to Super Sunday 2007.

Live Generously — It Does a World of Good will be the theme of the day, which will include calling sessions from 9 a.m. to noon and 4 to 8 p.m., with a teen session from 1 to 4 p.m. Federation is hoping to match the success of Super Sunday 2006 by raising more than $300,000 toward the overall goal of $2.3 million for the annual campaign, according to Linda Cohen, federation director of community services.

The day will also include letter writing to American and Israeli soldiers and wrapping gifts for the LIGHTS (Love Is Giving Hanukkah Toys to Share) program of the Jewish Family and Children’s Service of Greater Mercer County. There will be arts projects for children and baby-sitting for those under the age of five.

This year, the federation is hoping to enlist more than 70 teens in the Super Sunday effort, according to Jerri Blitzer, a first-time participant. In cooperation with the Principals Council, members of the Super Sunday Committee will visit all the congregational confirmation classes in the area to ask for the teens’ support.
