FRIENDS OF THE CENTER PHILANTHROPIC MEMBERSHIPS
One reason people belong to the JCC is to support the Jewish community. The JCC's Friends of the Center is a philanthropic program designed to help you extend your generosity to others who are less fortunate, while receiving some of the JCC's member benefits. Friends of the Center help the JCC to provide thousands of programs, services and classes for members of our community each year. Ten percent of the JCC's members receive scholarship support made possible by our Friends.

For a child, a scholarship may mean the ability to play, learn, swim, sing songs, talk and make friends all summer long at Camp JCC-without their parents having to worry about the financial burden. For a senior adult living on a limited income, a scholarship means the ability to remain connected to the community. Many senior adults participate in a myriad of opportunities to learn, socialize or eat a hot kosher lunch at the Center. For a family that is struggling financially, a Friend of the Center scholarship helps ensure they will remain fully connected to a supportive Jewish community.

Please consider becoming a Friend of the Center. A portion of each Friends contribution is tax-deductible. You can make your entire contribution tax-deductible by waiving all membership benefits.
