A Message From Our Chairman

Paul-Berman-300x300

Last year was exceptionally challenging for Jewish Community Services Cape (JCS).

JCS and the Jewish community faced and overcame huge challenges, the requests for Social Services increased dramatically, which include, inter alia, material relief, food, rental, accommodation, medical care and basic essentials from existing and new clients. Moreover, family support for their particular family members have significantly diminished, which has had significant financial consequences for JCS. 

In the face of increasing demands and diminishing resources, JCS has had to undertake an extensive strategic review of existing services, resources, and current needs, as well as the extent to which it could meet both material and social service requirements. The number of indigent and vulnerable members of the Jewish community requiring material relief, food, accommodation and psycho-social support continued to increase at an alarming rate.
