Cross-generational connections

Your support allows us to enrich lives, build community, and inspire Jewish journeys.

As we emerge from the pandemic, we need our community more than ever, and you can help us recover in many ways. Please consider becoming a donor. Your gift of any size is needed and appreciated. You also help us when you attend an online program and invite your friends. Let your neighbors know about our Preschool Program. Enroll your favorite children or teens in Camp Kehillah. Restart your fitness center membership, or participate in our online cultural arts, travel, tastings, and classes.

Please help in all the ways that are meaningful to you.

Corporate Gift Matching

Double your donation.

Double your donation with corporate gift matching.

What is corporate gift matching?

Corporate gift matching is when a company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations (The Osher Marin JCC is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and eligible for most Employer Matching Gift Programs). It’s an easy way to double your gift to the JCC and your positive impact on the community!

How do I request a matching gift or volunteer grant?

Requesting a matching gift or volunteer grant is quick and easy. Once you learn that your company has a matching gifts program in place, you simply fill out the form provided by your employer or through an electronic submission process. Please contact your employer’s HR or community giving department with any other specific questions.

We are grateful to the many companies who strengthen our community by matching the charitable gifts made by their employees.

Questions?
If you have questions regarding submitting a matching gift request to the JCC, please contact Michael Benesch, Development Officer at 415.444.8032 or mbenesch@marinjcc.org.
