While the enterprise of Jewish education is based on great principles, our ongoing ability to meet our dual commitment is often a matter of dollars and cents.
Each year, hundreds of children at Associated who might not otherwise receive a Jewish education, are provided with financial assistance. Over the years, thousands of children at Associated have been the recipients of this assistance but it is the community that has been the true beneficiary. These students have become leaders in business, education, the arts, the professions and in communal endeavours.
Most importantly, many have become committed Jewish parents who are, in turn, providing their children with the Jewish education that will guarantee Jewish continuity.
At the same time, our commitment to educational excellence has never been stronger. We have been successful in attracting a cadre of highly trained and gifted educational leaders. We are making great advances in pre-school education, literacy, informal education and professional development. Associated is on a path of innovation and continuing improvement that is touching every student in every classroom.
A contribution to Kadima, our Annual Campaign, provides the day-to-day financial support that is vital to the future of Associated.

"I give because I can and I know that community funding can only go so a far and I strongly believe in the importance of Jewish Education. I had a very positive experience as a student at Associated and have many good memories of my time there. I want others to share the same experience and have the same memories I do."
