About MAR & FJMC International
MIDDLE ATLANTIC REGION
One of seventeen regions, the MAR is comprised of 19 clubs throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. The regional leaders help build and strengthen Men’s Clubs through club visits, training programs, and the biennial regional retreat. They serve as a resource for club social and educational programming and offer help with membership retention and expansion, promotion and publicity, leadership development and succession. In addition, the MAR provides financial incentives for multi-club programming, FJMC Store resources, and for each attendee of the Biennial International Convention.

FJMC International (formerly the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs) is the international umbrella organization for a confederation of approximately 200 men’s auxiliaries serving more than 14,000 men around the globe. Our chapters and individual members are concentrated in North America throughout the United States and Canada. The influence of FJMC’s programs and contributions is felt worldwide.
FJMC International’s new vision statement expresses the heart of this shift:
Men will cultivate meaningful relationships, a sense of purpose, and physical, emotional, and spiritual health through communities rooted in Jewish values and brotherhood.
Its new mission statement outlines how that vision will be made real:
FJMC provides men opportunities for personal growth, and to build strong relationships. We accomplish this through: celebrating Jewish learning, traditions, and culture; gathering for social events and retreats; performing service projects; engaging over Israel; combating hate and antisemitism; mentoring the next generation of leaders; prioritizing our health and wellness; and by supporting one another in safe and nonjudgmental communities.
Our many programs and initiatives have a profound impact on our congregations, our youth, and world Jewry.
