How Can I Afford A
JCC Audibooks Program?

So, you want to bring a JCC Audiobooks program to your community, but you don't have the funds to do it yourself. What are some possible options?

Make It A Fundraiser - By selling copies of The Nazi Officer's Wife, or audiobooks offered by JCC Audiobooks, you can make back your costs, plus earn some money for your group as well.

Work with Neighboring Organizations - Often, different groups in one community will want to enjoy the same JCC Audiobooks program. Universities, synagogues, day schools, Jewish federations and Boards of Jewish Education can all help sponsor the costs of a program. Some communities are big enough to have the program in several locations, with each sponsoring body sharing just the costs of the costs of travel and lodging.

Apply for a Grant - The local Jewish federation, and often, the Board of Jewish Education as well, will help defray the costs of a JCC Audiobooks program that is open to the entire community. To access this money typically requires a very simple application and some follow-up phone calls.
