Giving
The Jewish Community of Ojai is fully dependent on the generosity of its members and others who value the presence of a Jewish Temple in the Ojai Valley.
While much of our income comes from annual membership dues, members, as well as non-members, are encouraged to make donations for special occasions or simply to support the services the Temple provides to the entire community.
​
JCO offers a way to recognize your family, friends and other members, while at the same time adding to the vitality of our community. We have four funds that have been developed:
​
* General Fund-Helps with temple expenses under the guidance of the JCO Board of Directors
​
* Rabbi’s Fund-Supports Rabbi Lisa in helping individuals, programs or organizations that need financial support, consistent with Temple’s values
​
* Cantor’s Fund-Donations help offset the additional cost to bring in Cantor Mitzi on a more regular basis
​
* Programming Fund-The fund supports programming for all Temple members.
​
If you wish to recognize a birthday or anniversary, the memory of a loved one on their yahrzeit, celebrate a mitzvah, or just to honor someone, consider whatever amount you feel suitable (we suggest in multiples of Chai $18—ie: $36; $54; $72; $180 or other).
