Mensch Award

Jewish Family and Children’s Service of Greater Mercer County announces the Rose & Louis H. Linowitz Mensch Award, a merit-based award for Jewish eighth graders and high school seniors living in Mercer County.

Candidates should exemplify what it means to be a mensch — a person of integrity and honor and a doer of good deeds. Students must be nominated by a rabbi, educator, youth group adviser, school guidance counselor,
or parent.

The eighth-grader who earns the Mensch-in-Training award will receive $300; high school senior Mensch Award winners will receive $1,500.

Applications are due by April 30. To nominate a student, visit JFCSonline.org or contact Joyce at 609-987-8100 or JoyceW@JFCSonline.org.
