St. Louis Jewish Community Center

The St. Louis Jewish Community Center ("the J") has been an integral part of the St. Louis community since 1880. Through our three campuses - the Staenberg Family Complex in Creve Coeur, the Marilyn Fox Building in Chesterfield, and Camp Sabra at the Lake of the Ozarks — the J serves people within five core service areas: Early Childhood Education, Day and Resident Camp, Culture & Education, Group Social Services (including senior nutrition and inclusion programs), and Fitness & Wellness.

Your support provides a moment of strength to those in need. It supports vital services, ensuring programs like The Hamsa Wellness Community can help neighbors heal and support each other in cancer recovery and beyond.

Your support connects our community’s youngest and oldest members, providing a nurturing foundation for Early Childhood Center children while fostering intergenerational friendship as they share activities with the Adult Day at the J.
