Stronger. Together.

The Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center builds connections to the Jewish Community in a setting that enriches physical, mental, and spiritual growth. 

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, membership and program fees account for only a portion of the funding required to provide community support. The remainder comes from corporate and community partners, foundations, grants, fundraisers, and individual donors, like you, throughout the year. 

A contribution of any size makes an impact, supporting members and families in need, ensuring no one is left behind due to financial circumstances.

Every donation allows us to provide life-enriching experiences, opportunities, and services to community members of all ages and faiths.
