Donation to J. Company
 
J Company is one of the youth theater program of the San Diego Center for Jewish Culture.  Our donation is to fund their Random Acts of Culture program to introduce and involve students in underprivileged areas of in live theater.  Children get to see live theater and participate in live theater productions.  This experience is tranformative and gives the children the opportunity to express themselves in a way they could not normally have.
