In July 2023, philanthropists Toby and Leon Cooperman presented an extraordinary challenge to the JESPY Community. The Cooperman Family offered a challenge grant of $13.25 Million – a transformational gift that will impact generations of JESPY clients. With excitement and urgency to unlock the Cooperman match, JESPY seeks philanthropic gifts to raise an additional $13.25 Million dedicated to the Go Big for JESPY campaign.

With your help, we will meet the Cooperman challenge of $13.25M and ultimately reach and exceed our goal.

Your gift today is long-lasting and life-changing for JESPY clients of today and tomorrow.
