Phyllis Bernstein Kuchner Scholarship

Phyllis Bernstein Kuchner believed that being involved was better than being quiet.  She advised others to GO, to LEARN and to DO. The Phyllis Bernstein Kuchner Scholarship, established by her husband, Bob Kuchner, is intended to encourage emerging leaders to do just that.  It awards up to $1,000 to one JCC member each year who presents an opportunity they would like to pursue, and we invite all in our community to apply for this newly created scholarship. 

The 2026 application will open in January 2026!
