Thank you for being part of our J which touches so many lives. Every day, thanks to our generous supporters in the Community Donor Circle, the Mandell JCC brings people together...makes us healthier...educates our children...supports those in need of assistance...and strengthens our connection to our culture, our community, and each other.

As a nonprofit organization that helps to build community every day, the Mandell JCC depends on your generous gifts to guarantee that the many vital and meaningful programs our members and neighbors rely on can continue to provide transformative experiences.

We are so grateful to our Pillars, Builders, Sustainers, Pacesetters and Friends who make a real difference. Please consider making a donation. Every act of generosity counts, and each means even more when we give together.

Increase Your Impact with Tax Savvy Giving Strategies

1. Donate appreciated stocks or securities directly to the JCC, which can potentially provide you with tax advantages. By donating these assets, you may be able to avoid capital gains taxes and claim a charitable deduction based on the fair market value of the donated securities. Please call Cheryl Couture at 860-231-6336 for more information.
2. Consider a gift from a donor-advised fund (DAF), which allows you to make a tax-deductible donation to the fund and then recommend grants to the JCC. This approach can provide you with an immediate tax benefit while also enabling you to support our mission in a sustained manner.
3. Use your IRA for good! A charitable IRA Rollover is a special provision allowing particular donors of age 701⁄2 and above to make a QCD – a transfer of IRA assets directly to public charities like the Mandell JCC – thereby excluding that amount from taxable income and counting toward their RMD.
4. You may be eligible to get a matching gift from your employer (or your spouse’s employer) which can double or triple the impact of your JCC gift. Be sure to contact your company’s Human Resources office to see if your employer will match your gift.
