Nadiv, United Jewish Federation of Tidewater’s young Jewish men’s fundraising division, is planning two fun community events this spring.
All proceeds support scholarships for Camp JCC in summer 2025. The group’s goal is to raise $25,000 between both events.
March Madness starts now
The first fundraiser is the group’s annual March Madness Bracket Challenge. Basketball expertise is not required!
Brackets for the NCAA basketball tournament can be both purchased and progress tracked online. First place will win a $500 Amazon gift card plus a seat in the new Nadiv Poker Night in May. Second place wins a $200 Amazon gift card and a poker seat while third place takes home a $100 Amazon gift card and a poker seat.
One bracket is $25, three brackets are $60, and five brackets are $90. The NCAA tournament kicks off on Sunday, March 16, but brackets are available to buy now. Visit JewishVA.org/Madness to purchase brackets.
A Full House
In May, Nadiv will stage an even more ambitious fundraising event: a community-wide poker tournament. Slated to take place on Tuesday, May 13, 6 – 9 pm at the Sandler Family Campus, the goal is to have 100 poker players.
The buy-in is $100, and re-buys are $50. Terrific prizes are planned for the entire night and specifically for people who reach the final table. One top prize is free entry to a poker tournament at Rivers Casino.
Nadiv seeks sponsors for the poker tournament. To register for the tournament or become a sponsor, visit federation.jewishva.org/nadiv-poker.
Space at the poker table is limited. Sign up now and get ready to compete!
