As our captain on this meaningful voyage for FJMC International, President Bruce Tomar knows what friendship is all about and how powerful it can be. Man was not meant to be alone, and we can make the world better, together. Here's how.

What am I getting myself into? That's the question that potential new leaders ask themselves, when they are asked to step up. But the answer is about far more than just logistics of time and effort.

FJMC's wellness campaign has been underway since the end of Sukkot but there's still time to join in, as we work off some weight, get fit and raise some extra money in the process.

Oh, I do say! FJMC International is actively working to grow our global reach, starting with a new brochure and a planned regional retreat in London, England. Jolly good!

We are continuing our efforts to support the Abayudaya Jewish community in southeastern Uganda and western Kenya, but now we're doing it directly through FJMC International. With about 2,500 members, 29 villages, more than a dozen synagogues, and at least two schools in a highly impoverished agricultural region, the needs are great, but the opportunities even greater. Want to sponsor a child for school? Buy tefillin or siddurim? Easy.

FJMC International hosted four days of special guest speakers online to mark the International Men's Day Gathering in November. The lively panels explored a host of topics affecting men in today's world.

Without the FJMC, valuable Jewish programming might never occur. FJMC needs your financial support to in order to continue to create the important programs which keeps your men’s Club vibrant. You can help preserve the significant impact the FJMC and its members have made on behalf of the Jewish men and their families around the world by making a pledge. Our movement depends on you!

Do you have the skills to create apps for the Apple iOS or Android platforms? Or would you like to take the lead in promoting the FJMC's first (and currently only) app, the FJMC Shoah Yellow Candle App, which is on both platforms?

If you'd like to discuss what is involved, contact FJMC International Past-President Allan Kahan, akahan@fjmc.org.

Are you passionate about Hearing Men's Voices, one of our most important defining programs? Do you want to work with the program to help the FJMC move forward? To volunteer for the HMV Committee contact HMV@fjmc.org. 

It's not easy being green - the FJMC had a long-standing commitment to the environment and sustainability with the Shomrei Ha'aretz Initiative, and we need more guys to carry on that work for our community. Contact environment@fjmc.org to learn more about how you can help.
