Ways to Give...Ways to Strengthen our Community

 
Brick Pavers

Celebrate and honor your family's memories at the J with a brick paver at the entrance to our Arts & Education Building.  There are a limited number remaining so set-in-stone your message while supporting the J.  Contact Kimmi Levinson at 314-442-3109 to set your message in stone.

Be our partner...walk and grow with us to ensure that future generations have an amazing community center experience where anyone and everyone are welcome.  Your contribution will aid with the J's legacy for generations to come.  

Millstone Society

The Millstone Society reflects the tradition of giving inspired by legendary community leader I.E. Millstone, who established the St. Louis Jewish community campus and served two terms as JCC Board Chair. The Millstone Society recognizes the highest level of commitment in support of the JCC and its many programs. Annual giving includes donations to programs, sponsorships, fundraising events, membership and the earnings from a donor’s endowment fund at the JCC. The Millstone Society provides a visionary level of annual leadership support that is essential to the continued growth and strength of programs benefiting the St. Louis Jewish and general community. We salute their vision, their sense of community and their commitment to philanthropy. The Jewish Community Center of St. Louis is pleased to honor and pay tribute to a special group of individuals, families and organizations whose belief in the importance of family, Jewish culture, community and philanthropy are demonstrated through their extraordinary support.

The community will benefit from your generosity. If you would like to learn more about funding a program or how you may create an endowment fund of your own, we are available to talk with you.

Other Ways to Give

Planned Giving

Remembering the JCC in your will or estate plan creates a legacy to honor cherished memories of the JCC and creates an enduring gift. Assure the JCC’s vibrancy by designating a specific amount of your estate, making the JCC included as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, offering a charitable trust or other creative estate planning. Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to realize a variety of tax benefits with your planned gift. Click here for a planned giving form.

Corporate & Business Donations

Many businesses support the JCC because its distinctive programs and services are a great recruiting tool for business. Few cities have such a vibrant organization to serve as powerful incentive to attract the best and brightest.
