Turning a Mission into a Reality

At the J we believe it’s not just what we say – it’s what we do. And, while we provide the entire community with a destination for inclusive wellness, high quality education, and comprehensive social services – what we really do is serve a mission that brings everyone together.

That takes work.

We’re at our best when the community invests not only in its financial resources, but also its time and talents. From serving clients of the Jewish Community Pantry to supporting our legacy leaders in senior adult programs to educating youth through our tutoring services – there is no shortage of opportunities to open your heart and give some of yourself back to the community.

EMPOWERING VOLUNTEERS

The Volunteer Hub is a centralized destination for current and future volunteers to engage with JCC programs and the community we serve. You can view current and upcoming volunteer opportunities, indicate your interest, and register to volunteer.

Our dedicated Volunteer Coordinator will match you with the opportunities that best align with your passions. From helping to shape programs by joining a committee to offering day-of support for events big and small, there’s no shortage of ways to get involved.
