Hard Rock Atlantic City Donates $50,000 to NAN Tech World Youth Program

Q: How does a one-day shopping event help Jewish Family Service provide year-round support for local seniors?

A one-day shopping event helps Jewish Family Service provide year-round support for local seniors by raising unrestricted or program-directed funds that can be used well beyond the day of the sale. In this case, JFS of Atlantic and Cape May Counties’ Aug. 1 “Shop for a Cause” event at FindZ in Margate will direct a portion of sales to the nonprofit’s programs and services. Those proceeds help fund The Lynn Kramer Village by the Shore, JFS’s membership program for adults 50 and older. That matters because the Village by the Shore delivers ongoing support throughout the year, not just at special events. Services include care coordination, transportation, grocery shopping and delivery, kosher meals, and intergenerational programming. For many older residents, those are practical supports that help them remain connected and independent. The broader fundraising model is straightforward: a single-day retail event generates revenue, and the net proceeds are folded into JFS’s operating budget for senior services. Similar JFS fundraising events have shown how one-day campaigns can produce meaningful support for long-term community needs. In effect, the shopping event converts one day of consumer spending into sustained assistance for local seniors across the year.
