In celebration of the Center. Where we belong.

Make a walk through the Center, any hour, any day. What do you see?
1 Parents, children, teens, sports and social events, art and theater, the work and
play of generations together. And what do you hear? Laughter, schmoozing, the
joyful clamor of a pre-school classroom, a gym, a playground, a day camp, an adult
workshop, a café, a place alive and bustling.

What better reflects the unity, vibrancy and energy of Jewish life in metro Detroit than
the remarkable past and presence of its Center? Our JCC.

As our community has moved, so too has the JCC. As times have changed, so too has
the JCC. As our community's needs have grown, so too has the JCC. One amazing
Center, our JCC is now anchored on two vibrant neighborhood campuses. Applebaum,
Kahn, Pitt. Handleman, Prentis Morris, Taubman — these are but a few of the names of
the hundreds of families who have left their mark in time on these sites.

For 75 years, the Center has served as center stage: our one central address, the place
where we meet and connect, explore and play, nourish and refresh mind, body and
spirit. No matter where we live, or to what congregations or secular organizations
we belong, the JCC has always been our place, where the door is always open,
where all are welcome.

From its humble beginnings in the Hannah Schloss Building downtown, to
its present-day sites in West Bloomfield and Oak Park, the JCC has always
been a community builder and a principal agent of change — working in partnership
with the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit and the United Jewish Foundation.

We are blessed to share in the accomplishments of our community at its Center,
looking forward to exciting developments and growth in our future.

Our heartfelt mazel tov!
