Mission Statement
The mission of The Jewish Community Center in Manhattan is to foster an inclusive, engaged and informed community that embraces diversity and is rooted in Jewish values. We are a home for individuals and families of all backgrounds to grow and to learn, to deepen their connections and to care for one another. Rooted in Jewish values, our cultural, social, educational, and recreational programs offer multiple pathways into the richness of community life for members of all ages. Through our partnerships and programs, we seek to fulfill our responsibility to the people of Israel and Jews throughout the world and to improve the quality of life in our neighborhoods and city.
Description
Repairing the World: Tikkun Olam reflects the JCC's commitment to empowering our community to better the lives of others, and directly serve some of our city's neediest children and families. This program provides a variety of opportunities for people to serve their community in ways that connect to Jewish culture and history, and are motivated by the pressing issues of the day. http://www.jccmanhattan.org/social-action
