Once again, the local Jewish Women’s Foundation’s cutting-edge, hands-on philanthropists have planned a most fitting, innovative program for Granting Wishes, their annual evening of grant award announcements. Women of all ages are invited from throughout the community for a screening of The Tribe, a powerful and provocative 16-minute film exploration of American Jewish identity through the history of the Barbie doll, at 5:30 pm on March 17 at Boca Rio Country Club.

Imagine a day when hundreds of individuals and families from our community gather together to improve countless lives for their neighbors, in Israel and around the world. On March 14, hundreds of volunteers of all ages will do just that at the 2010 Super Sunday phone-a-thon – and you’re welcome to share this extraordinary experience. This year there are even more ways to help on Super Sunday. Volunteers will help raise urgently needed funds and also be able to contribute through hands-on projects.

On January 25th, Federation’s philanthropic men again enjoyed the most exclusive local golf experience while helping meet vital community needs, at the Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County’s 2nd Invitational Men’s Golf Classic at Boca Rio Golf Club. Some morning drizzles could not dampen the golfers’ spirits, which soared as the sun came through to shine on an extraordinary day on Boca Rio’s lush, serene course.
