July’s Member of the Month

For Mark, The J has been more than a place to work out or gather, it is truly a place to grow for him and his family. 💙

Growing up with The J, he has built lasting connections and continues to stay actively involved through pickleball, the Dad Wellness Group, and as a valued community partner through his accounting firm. The J has been there through different stages of his life, and today it remains a place where he can connect, grow, and give back.

As his family grows, so does his connection to The J. He looks forward to being part of The J’s future and watching it continue to evolve alongside his family for years to come.

Thank you, Mark, for your partnership, participation, and commitment to our community. We’re proud to grow together.

  • Out of School Safety Awareness | LLG

    Valley of the Sun J 12701 N Scottsdale Rd #201, Scottsdale, AZ, United States

    When school is out, routines change, and that’s when awareness matters most.

    Lebovitz Law Group is partnering with The J to host an Out of School Safety Awareness event focused on helping families navigate the busy summer months. With more children outdoors, riding bikes, crossing streets, and spending time with friends, simple reminders about supervision and road safety can make a meaningful difference.

    Summer should be filled with fun, freedom, and good memories. By staying attentive and proactive, we can help prevent avoidable accidents and keep our kids safe while they enjoy their break.
    This event is about preparation, shared responsibility, and looking out for one another, because a safe community starts with informed families.
    We’re here and we care.

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.
