Jenks Center Sponsors

The Jenks Center relies on many forms of support throughout the year that includes sponsorships, donations and volunteers. These generous contributions play a vital role in sustaining the many educational, social support and recreational programs offered by the Jenks. Our success as a community asset would not be possible without the following supporters.

A Ten-Year Cummings Foundation Grant

The Winchester Seniors Association (WSA) is delighted to announce that we were one of only forty organizations awarded a ten-year grant from the Cummings Foundation.  The grant allows the WSA to continue offering evening and weekend programs, which is especially important for our working seniors. 

​

We ask all patrons to:

• Thank the Cummings Foundation for their generous support!

• Log in to see what’s happening on Tuesday evening at the Jenks.

• Invite your friends to join you.

• Let us know if there are speakers or topics that you would like to hear about.

• And spread the word to organizations that could benefit from use of the Jenks Center.

 

Please send any suggestions to:  Maria Rutnam, WSA Program Director - mrutnam@jenkscenter.org
