Family… community… making life better by offering multiple ways to grow, learn and celebrate. No matter what your age or interest, the Osher Marin Jewish Community Center has programs and services to enrich your life. We are delighted to offer you a unique opportunity to support the JCC and help us continue this vital work by becoming a family sponsor of our annual gala and major fundraiser, Marin Alfresco to be held on Saturday evening, May 30, 2015.

Our evening begins in the Plaza J Courtyard with local tastings and jazz music. Then onward to Swig Field where guests will enjoy local cuisine, libations, delectable sweets, a silent auction and dance the night away under the stars to Wonder Bread 5! All proceeds from Marin Alfresco will support JCC scholarships that allow our community members to strengthen their bodies and spirits in our pools and fitness center, experience our summer camp, enjoy weekly Shabbat lunches and excursions for seniors, participate in our preschool and toddler programs, attend inspiring performing arts programs and connect with their community. We award over $200,000 in these scholarships annually.

In grateful recognition of your sponsorship, your family name will be prominently featured in print, on invitations, event materials, e-blast and hard copy mailings that reach over 19,000 community members. The enclosed sponsorship benefits and recognition sheet provides a detailed description of sponsorship levels. We welcome your support and look forward to having you be part of this community celebration.
