Why the Annual Dinner MattersDinner sponsorships and table sales help fund the programs and operations of the JCC. The Annual Dinner is ourlargest and most important fundraiser, providing foundational support for our numerous family programs.

Fundraising at the DinnerTwo years ago, we made our first ever pitch from the podium because the demand for scholarships exceeded ourability to help families impacted by the recession. The success of that appeal indicated that our guests enjoyed theopportunity to support a worthy cause.

This year’s dinner fundraising will be dedicated to funding children’s programs.
