The Phonathon is one of the most important fundraisers JRC does all year. As our dues contribute just over 50% of our operational expenses, we rely on the generosity of members to help sustain this wonderful community. These funds also ensure that we can let anyone be a member, regardless of income. If, in the spirit of gam yachad, everyone participates, we will be able to reach our financial goal of $50,000.
The Religious School provides JRC children with the building blocks they need to engage throughout their lives in Jewish exploration, community and activism.
In 2008, we built the first platinum LEED-certified green synagogue in North America. The construction required 18 pillars - the number in Hebrew that also means "chai" or "life."
Now, more than ten years later, JRC has launched the Pillars of Chai Campaign to raise $4.4m to wholly own our beloved building.
Our enriching and diverse preschool program is based on progressive Jewish values, is open to families of all religious backgrounds, and focuses on the importance of relationships between students, teachers, and families.
