ABOUT
The RBC JCC Sports Dinner: where champions come to give back.
The RBC JCC Sports Dinner is an annual charity event supporting the Jewish Community Centre of Greater Vancouver (JCC) and its year-round programs and services for the community.
The JCC is a vibrant community centre offering inclusive cultural, recreational, educational and social programs for people of all ages and backgrounds. From preschool and youth programs to fitness, sports, arts, seniors programming and initiatives supporting individuals with diverse needs, the JCC creates opportunities for people of all denominations to connect, participate, and thrive.
The JCC is committed to building an inclusive community where everyone is welcomed, valued and given the opportunity to shine. Funds raised through the RBC JCC Sports Dinner help support accessible programs and services that promote connection, health and wellbeing, and a strong sense of community.
The RBC JCC Sports Dinner is one of Vancouver's premier networking events, bringing together business and community leaders for an evening of connection, inspiration, and philanthropy. Each year, guests hear from world-class athletes and achievers who have reached the highest levels of success, including a high-profile global athlete Guest Speaker and a Jack Diamond award recipient. These sports icons speak on their experiences making a positive impact in their communities, and on what it takes to become a champion — whether on the ice, the field, the court, or beyond.
