Terry L. Jacobs Youth Scholarship Fund

The Terry L. Jacobs Youth Scholarship Fund was established in 2020 to perpetuate Terry's legacy and her belief in the importance of fostering a strong Jewish identity in our children.

Through supporting a variety of educational, social, camping, and fun travel experiences, this fund aims to use immersive enrichment experiences to strengthen Jewish identity and positive connections with other Jewish youth.

The fund will also help Jewish youth learn to raise their voices so they can work to bring justice to a fractured world through acts of tikkun olam.

The Terry L. Jacobs Youth Scholarship Fund is funded through the generosity of her beloved family and friends.

Thank you for donating and being a part of our BCRC community.

Wishing you all the love and light!
