The mission of the Cummings Jewish Centre for Seniors Foundation is to provide the financial resources necessary to enrich the quality of life of seniors by supporting projects and activities that promote excellence in healthy aging. Fund raised also improve the autonomy of seniors by ensuring the development and continuation of preventative programs and support services. The Foundation's role is to raise funds, support new and innovative Agency programming and maintain CJCS’ status as a centre offering quality programming and support services.

The Foundation oversees all fundraising initiatives in the Agency.

As the demand for service increases and our resources shrink, the Agency must become as financially independent as possible.  Did you know that 21% of the Jewish Community is elderly and more than 20% live below the poverty level? We rely on the generosity of our many donors and volunteers to help us accomplish our vital mission and positively touch the lives of thousands of seniors.
