Families Engagement
Your family can change lives while learning about Jewish identity. Our Meaningful Mitzvah program and other opportunities incorporate Jewish education and philanthropy into engaging and age-appropriate programs for all members of the family.
Through the Meaningful Mitzvah program, feel connected to the Jewish Board of Family and Children Services (JBFCS), a UJA-Federation beneficiary agency, through a yearlong partnership that includes collections, a pen pal program, and various other interactive opportunities.
- Collections — Along with your children, take part in special opportunities to help the Jewish Board of Family and Children's services collect needed supplies.
- Weekend Mitzvah — Join together with other families from the Marks JCH for fun family weekend activities.
