Join us on Giving Tuesday!
November 30
 
November was all about giving for our JCC, and it will culminate on Tuesday, November 30 (the Tuesday after Thanksgiving) when our JCC will join millions around the world participating in the global Giving Tuesday generosity movement. 
 
On Giving Tuesday, please consider making an investment in the JCC and Jewish community.
 
It's easy. You can text to donate WHYIJ to 707070 or click here to donate.
 
Pack the Truck!

The Jewish Family Service of Central NJ Food Truck will be coming to the JCC parking lot on Giving Tuesday.  Last year we packed the truck and then some!  Let's do it again this year!

Tuesday, November 30 • 9:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.
