Honoring a Legacy of Leadership and Investing in the Future of the J
After 13 years of visionary leadership as CEO of the Mayerson JCC, Marc Fisher is retiring—but his impact will continue for generations to come. Throughout his tenure, Marc championed the growth and excellence of the JCC’s most valuable assets: its people. He understands that professional development isn’t just about acquiring new skills—it’s about inspiring purpose, strengthening connections, and fueling innovation.
In honor of Marc’s deep commitment to the staff who bring the JCC’s mission to life every day, the Marc Fisher Professional Development Fund is being established to ensure ongoing investment in their success. Conferences, training programs, and fellowships provide staff with essential tools and inspiration, while cultivating a network of support across the Jewish professional world. Yet, these opportunities are often among the first to be eliminated when budgets tighten.
This endowment will help reverse that trend—empowering the J to attract and retain top talent and reinforcing a culture where every team member feels supported and valued. Together, we can honor Marc’s legacy by placing professional excellence at the heart of the Mayerson JCC.
