Do you have children or grandchildren who will be traveling to Israel as part of a semester abroad or a summer experience? How about local Jewish summer camps? The philanthropic arm of the Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club, the Bruce Retchin – Neil Goren Memorial fund is one of our most important services to the community.
Sponsored by the SNHJMC, the Bruce Retchin-Neil Goren Memorial Fund was instituted to provide financial stipends for our community’s youth planning such ventures.
We ask that we receive your request by April 15th each year for consideration.

About Bruce Retchin & Neil Goren
When Bruce Retchin, our good friend and officer of the SNHJMC passed away, the club created this fund for the express purpose of helping Jewish children in the community. The fund provides mementos, such as Kiddish Cups or Tanachs, to the Bat Mitzvah and Bar Mitzvah students commemorating their special day. In addition, the fund also provides assistance for Jewish youth studying in Israel or other educational purposes. When Neil Goren, another long-term officer and leading contributor to the SNHJMC passed away, it was decided to add his name to the fund.
Please consider adding a few dollars to your SNHJMC membership check for this worthy cause.
If you have any questions, please email us by clicking on either of the SNHJMC President or Treasurer links.
