Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County’s Women’s Philanthropy Division welcomes to its 2024 Lion of Judah Luncheon acclaimed author Dara Horn and Israeli megastar Gad Elbaz, a prominent figure in the Jewish music scene, on Feb. 7 at B’nai Torah Congregation in Boca Raton.
Part of an international sisterhood of 18,000 women strong, South Palm Beach County’s Lion contingent of more than 700 is among the largest in the country. Event Co-Chairs Melinda Friedman and Phyllis Melman, along with Women’s Philanthropy Chair Elyssa Kupferberg and Vice Chair of Campaign Shelly Snyder, have planned a memorable program to celebrate the work and impact of local Lions.
Through Linda & Don Brodie’s Annual Campaign Match for Jewish Needs, any new Lion donation of $5,000 or more will be matched dollar for dollar, and any increased Lion gift of a minimum of 10% will also be matched (the value of the increase only). For attendance, a minimum individual woman’s gift of $5,000 to the 2024 UJA/Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County Annual Campaign is required.
The 2024 Lion of Judah Luncheon is proudly sponsored by Ivan & Co, Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits Atlas Event Rental, Women’s Philanthropy Division Sponsor Boca Raton Regional Hospital and The Boca Raton Observer, who is the event’s exclusive media sponsor.
