MAKE A DIFFERENCE
The JCC is powered by people who show up. Whether you want to serve your community, step into Jewish leadership, or lend your time, there is a place for you here.
Volunteer Opportunities That Make a Difference
Through partnerships with local organizations, the JCC connects volunteers with meaningful opportunities to support seniors, families, education programs, and food insecurity initiatives throughout the community.
EVENTS, COMMITTEES & MORE
The JCC runs on the energy and dedication of its volunteers. From staffing community events to serving on committees, there are many ways to contribute your time, on your schedule, at your level.
We are building out a full listing of volunteer positions, including event and program roles, committee seats, and more. These will be available through Amilia, our registration platform.
JEWISH LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
HaDerech is a leadership program for emerging lay leaders who want to deepen their connection to the JCC and the broader Jewish community. Facilitated by professional speakers and community leaders, HaDerech strengthens Jewish identity, builds leadership skills, and creates a cohort of people committed to shaping the future of our JCC.
The program is run in partnership by JCC Chief Operating Officer Mallory Zipkin and JCC Past President Stacie Friedman — a powerful example of the staff/lay partnership that defines our JCC.
Applications available annually in February. To learn more, email Mallory Zipkin, Chief Operating Officer, at [email protected].
