Make Your Legacy a Vibrant Jewish Tomorrow
Joining our Legacy Society is your opportunity to remember the JCC of Greater Columbus with a gift in your will, trust, retirement account or through a life insurance policy. Leaving the JCC an enduring gift is a commitment to the longevity of our agency and a meaningful way to secure your Jewish legacy.
For more than 100 years, the Jewish Community Center of Greater Columbus has been at the heart of the Columbus Jewish community. We are a place of belonging, where people of all backgrounds can gather, connect, build lifelong relationships and create enduring memories. We are committed to strengthening the body, mind and soul of the 400,000+ community members entering our doors annually.
Our J is where Jewish Values come to life through through education, wellness, cultural arts and more.
Jewish values of Kehillah (community), Kavod (respect), Chesed (caring), Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), and Gemilut Chasadim (acts of loving kindness) are embedded throughout JCC activities and experiences. Children laughing as they walk through the halls, seniors sharing stories over hot Kosher lunches, feet thumping on the treadmill and energetic camp song sessions are just some of the sounds that tell our story.
