Support Jewish Children & Families

To say that there are many times and methods to support your favorite causes is an understatement!

JCRS supporters come from all income levels. Some contributors donate every month, some contribute once or more each year, and still others can send a contribution only once every few years. We are pleased to say that last year, over 2,000 households made individual contributions to the programs of JCRS.

The preferred method of helping needy Jewish children and their families, by a growing number of donors, has been to create a scholarship fund at Jewish Children’s Regional Service. Establishing a fund at JCRS accomplishes several goals. They include:

  • The opportunity to help needy Jewish youths in one or more scholarship programs on an ongoing basis.
  • The opportunity for a donor family to commit to a specific Tzedakah project, such as one of the JCRS scholarship programs.
  • The opportunity for a family to permanently honor or memorialize a loved one by naming a scholarship for needy youths after that individual.

The minimum commitment to establish a named scholarship fund is $10,000, which can be paid out over five years. Some individuals who were living on fixed incomes and could not establish a fund during their lifetimes have provided gifts of $10,000 or more in their Wills. Please keep in mind that JCRS is an IRS 501-C-3 non-profit agency and as such, your gift is fully tax deductible.

Jewish Children’s Regional Service acknowledges all gifts, both to you and to the person or family you honor. We send an individual, personal letter or letters to your honoree or honorees. Family gifts are acknowledged to each family member. In addition, each donor is provided a separate certification for each tax-deductible contribution to JCRS programs.

The children and families you will help appreciate your kindness and generosity!
