For three decades, Jay Zises has served as the chairman of A Cap Incorporated Investment Management. Through his company, he helps young and rising entrepreneurs manage their finances. An active community member, Jay Zises is also affiliated with the American Friends of Israeli Defense Forces, and he volunteers with the Church of Heavenly Rest. The Church of Heavenly Rest is an NYC-based church with an outreach mission to serve those in need and find innovative ways to solve social problems. One of its initiatives is a periodic thrift pop-up called Thrift & Treasures, through which it provides clothing to the local community at affordable prices. It also fosters a culture of responsible consumption, with households donating products instead of throwing them away, and shoppers buying secondhand. Thrift & Treasures opens three Saturdays every year; in the spring, fall, and winter. Thrift and Treasures sales include a wide variety of clothing and household items from designer clothes to glassware, linens, and children’s books. Volunteers run the sale and people from all over the city come to shop at the Thrift Sale Saturdays. Nothing goes to waste even after the sales are over; anything that remains unsold is then donated to other local thrift shops.
