Community Centers<br />

T<br />

he <strong>Jerusalem</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> has supported community<br />

centers in each neighborhood of the city since its inception.<br />

These physical institutions need to be updated and<br />

renovated in order to ensure quality community programming<br />

throughout <strong>Jerusalem</strong>. Community strength must be<br />

built from within and developed through outreach and<br />

solid networks of support. However, programming is<br />

also dependent on a reasonable physical infrastructure<br />

that is maintained and made available for the use of the<br />

entire community.<br />

Currently, the <strong>Jerusalem</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> seeks to expand the<br />

community services campus of Pisgat Ze’ev, an outlying<br />

neighborhood with a large population, to renovate and<br />

add additional space to the community center in Kiryat<br />

Menachem after more than 40 years of use and to build<br />

a large new community center in Har Nof, a growing<br />

ultra-orthodox community that needs a center that responds<br />

to the changing needs of the neighborhood.<br />

Funding needed: $1.5 to 7 million<br />
