About the Friends of the Jewish Chapel
The Friends of the Jewish Chapel (FOJC) is a nonprofit organization at the United States Naval Academy (USNA) that supports the religious and cultural lives of Jewish Midshipmen. "Midshipmen" refers to students at the USNA.
FOJC acquires and manages the resources necessary to enable and provide continuing support for enrichment programs, reinforcing the Midshipmen’s understanding of and appreciation for their religious and ethnic backgrounds, and of Jewish traditions and values. Such programs, proposed by the Naval Academy’s Jewish Chaplain and approved by the Board of Directors of FOJC include meeting the immediate needs and concerns of the Jewish Midshipmen; supporting the Jewish Chapel and visiting speaker and scholar-in-residence programs; field trips; and similar initiatives with the goal of preparing Jewish Midshipmen for their dual roles as career officers and Jewish lay leaders.
FOJC-sponsored activities are open to all midshipmen, faculty, staff and all uniformed personnel – including active duty, reserve, retired service members and veterans, regardless of the length of their service. These programs provide everyone the opportunity to learn about the religious customs and ethical values of their Jewish colleagues, fostering a greater understanding of Jewish issues and concerns.
