Dear Members,

I am excited to share with you the implementation of a new mission statement and vision statement

for our JCC. The original mission statement had been in place literally forever and was felt to be too

long and too generic.

Mission statements ideally reflect the essence of an institution and should anchor that institution even

in the midst of challenges, opportunities and changing conditions. Unlike a vision statement, which

speaks to what we hope to achieve, a mission statement reflects who we are. The following is our

new mission statement, recently approved by our Board of Directors:

The Jewish Community Center of Greater Baltimore promotes and strengthens Jewish life

and values through communal programs and activities for individuals and families.

The JCC of Greater Baltimore is a constituent agency of THE ASSOCIATED Jewish

Community Federation of Baltimore.

For me, the key phrases in this statement are:

• Greater Baltimore – This implies that we are not limited to providing programs and services only

within the walls of our facilities, but we need to go to where our clientele is located, whether that be

in Downtown Baltimore, Eldersburg, or Roland Park, etc.

• Promotes and strengthens Jewish life – This implies that we have both the obligation and the

opportunity to impact the quality of Jewish life in our community in cooperation with other Jewish

institutions.

• Through communal programs and activities – This implies that our strength as an institution

is engaging people in creative programs, and that we will strive to be responsive to all Jews in our

endeavors. It also suggests that non-Jews are welcome to participate with us.

• Families and individuals – This implies that the community is made up of lots of configurations

including: families, single adults, single parent families, older adults, teens, individuals with

disabilities, etc.

• ASSOCIATED Jewish Federation This implies the importance of The ASSOCIATED to the JCC.

Without their ongoing financial support, our effectiveness as an Agency would be severely curtailed.

We have the responsibility as an institution to live up to our mission statement and we hope over the

coming years to live up to and exceed your expectations. If you have an idea for a program that fits

our mission statement please feel free to email us at [email protected] or leave us a note in our suggestion

box at the front desk.

Regards,

Louis “Buddy” Sapolsky

President, JCC of Greater Baltimore
