Building for Good Capital Campaign:
We’re Almost There! Help Us Cross the Finish Line!
It’s official! Construction is now complete, beautiful new spaces are open and active, and we have nearly reached our most ambitious fundraising goal to date as part of this truly historic effort to strengthen and sustain our mission for generations to come… all thanks to the incredible generosity of our community—and supporters like YOU!
This campaign has already made a transformative impact both within and beyond Jewish for Good. Together, we’ve built momentum, launched new and expanded much-needed programs and services, and laid the groundwork for a future that honors our past while boldly stepping into all that lies ahead. Now, with just a little further to go, your support can help bring this vision fully to life… while also ensuring we can pay off all remaining debt too!
Be Part of the Final Chapter
Every gift, large or small, brings us one step closer to closing this campaign with strength and purpose, which we all know matters more now than ever before. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to give, this is it. If you’ve already given, THANK YOU — and please consider helping us finish strong by spreading the word or making an additional gift, all payable over the next one to three years.
This is more than a milestone; it’s a legacy.

LEARN MORE AND PLEDGE YOUR SUPPORT TODAY!
Jewish for Good has never been stronger, with our visionary CEO Jill Madsen and a strong team of diverse community leaders leading the way into a new era of unity and growth. The opening of the Levin JCC in 2011 ushered in a host of new community-building services, but our strategic planning process launched in 2018 confirmed that we have long since reached the limit of what we can accomplish in our original facilities.
To meet the evolving (and expanding!) needs of our local Jewish community throughout the 2020s and beyond, the Building for Good Capital Campaign has enabled us to expand our facilities—now offering an array of new mission-centered programs and services, while also enhancing existing favorites, too.
With construction now complete, we are focusing our full attention on wrapping up our fundraising efforts ASAP—which is where YOU come in! Don’t miss the chance to leave your mark on Jewish for Good as we close out this once-in-a-decade campaign. Join us today!
Make a gift today by donating online (be sure to select “Capital Campaign – Building for Good” in the Campaign field); or complete and submit a pledge card to confirm your commitment (payable over 1 – 3 years).
