WOLFE MARCUS TRUST YOUTH TRAVEL TO ISRAEL SCHOLARSHIP
Endowments through the Jewish Foundation of Greater Dayton help support a wide variety of programs and services provided through the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton, Jewish Family Services, and the Jewish Community Center. Several funds were established to provide scholarship opportunities to local youth, including the Wolfe Marcus Fund, which was established to provide scholarships for local youth who are planning to travel to Israel. Legacy gifts help the Federation and its agencies meet their missions, and provide programs and services for generations to come.
