The fundraising department has an exciting year ahead as we celebrate the Friedberg JCC’s 10th Anniversary in the Harry & Jeanette Weinberg Building with a number of ways to support the JCC and our stellar programs:
Arnie Preminger and Sunrise Day Camp featured on WABC-TV's Eyewitness News
WABC-TV's Eyewitness News is launching a new feature segment called Heroes in the Community. The first "hero" for this series is Arnie Preminger, President & CEO of the Friedberg JCC and Sunrise Day Camp.
The segment aired on Tuesday, September 1st and includes emotional interviews with campers and counselors who described what Sunrise Day Camp has meant to them and how Arnie's passion has changed their lives. Liz Cho, anchor of the 6 p.m. & 11 p.m. newscasts and reporter for this series, spent a morning interviewing Arnie and touring the camp.
Samuel Levine Memorial Golf Classic Join us in Support of Sunrise Day Camp as we honor Paul Brensilber, Roddey Dowd Jr. and Jordan Ziegler.
Sunrise Day Camp is the only dedicated day camp in the nation where children with cancer and their siblings are provided a new beginning free of charge. The fun, friendship, and happiness continue year round through various camp-like programs and hospital services.
The funds collected in connection with this event go directly to fund Sunrise Day Camp. The camp is a program of the Friedberg JCC, a beneficiary agency of UJA-Federation of New York.
New this year... our journal has gone GREEN! Our Virtual Ad Journal will be screened at the event and viewed online throughout the coming year.
1st Annual Ray Lammie Memorial Charity Classic Join us at the Moriches Athletic Complex in Center Moriches, NY as we honor one of Long Islands' finest ballplayers, managers and humanitarians in an effort to continue to support his favorite charity, Sunrise Day Camp.
If you knew Ray personally, you know how much he gave to various charities through baseball. His drive, focus and effort in helping many others who were less fortunate was overwhelming. We will now try to pick up a small part of Ray's work.
All teams will be guaranteed 3 games, a playoff format on Sunday, giveaway gifts, trophies to the winners.
Space is limited (12-16 teams). Bring a team, a small group, or just yourself.
Help us continue Ray's work and Legacy. The cost per player is a $150 donation
