To our JCC Community,

As we bid farewell to 2023, we want to express our deepest appreciation for the unwavering support you have provided throughout the year. Within the pages of our Impact Report we invite you to witness the incredible effect your JCC has had on the lives of people in our community. As you peruse our report, we hope you share in the profound pride of being a crucial and indispensable part of this inspiring success story

Year after year, our JCC dedicates itself to giving back, providing over $350,000 in scholarship assistance. This commitment ensures that every individual in our community has the opportunity to engage in JCC programs and services. The JCC remains steadfast in its principle that no one should be turned away due to financial constraints. Our aspiration is for every child to participate in enriching programs, regardless of their financial circumstance., providing access to Early Childhood Education and the joy of Summer Camp. We are equally committed to offering the community the chance to benefit from health and wellness initiatives, while enhancing their lives through social and cultural arts experiences.

However, achieving these goals is only possible with your continued support!

At this time, we encourage you to reflect on the immeasurable gifts the JCC brings to your life, not just today, but every day. If you haven’t already, we kindly ask that you consider joining us in making an end of the year gift  that will leave a lasting impact on the JCC community in the years ahead. Your contribution is pivotal; we simply cannot be the resilient and vibrant community that we are without your involvement.

Thank you for being an integral part of our JCC family. Your generosity ensures that our community continues to thrive, and we look forward to embarking on another year of shared achievements and growth!

Wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy 2024!

With heartfelt gratitude,

Josh Leibner           Laura Friedman
JCC President        JCC Executive Director
