The Trustee Circle and Chai Society

Dues and program fees cover less than 80% of the JCCNV's annual operating expenses. We depend on the generous philanthropy of individuals, corporations and foundations to ensure our financial sustainability. Donating 69% of the funds raised throughout the year, Trustee Circle and Chai Society members are the cornerstone of the Center's ability to build a strong community based on Jewish values.

The Trustee Circle: Donors in the Trustee Circle donate a minimum cash gift of $3,000 or more annually. This special visionary group of leaders understands the importance of the JCCNV to our Jewish community, and the fact that none of our extraordinary programs would be possible without a financially sound operation.

JCCNV Chai Society: By joining the Chai Society, members are demonstrating their understanding that the life of the JCCNV depends on our ability to financially support our general operations in addition to programmatic support. The Chai Society recognizes this special group of donors who give at least $1,800 to our General Operating Fund, allowing us to utilize the funds to best meet the needs of the Center. To augment their general operating support, many members of the Chai Society choose contribute supplementary dollars to the programs about which they are most passionate. Chair Society members are also named as Trustee Circle members when their contributions equal or exceed $3,000 annually.
