THE MEN'S EVENT

This year's Men's Event was a huge success at our exciting new venue on San Diego Bay. The kickoff event for the 2012 Campaign embraced the theme of Family Philanthropy and featured local stories of three San Diego families who lead by example and are committed to passing their Jewish values on to the next generation.

Thanks to our event Co-Chairs, David Geffen, Gary Kornfeld and Steve Shulman, our Campaign Chair, Theresa Dupuis, our Campaign Cabinet and especially the Jinich, Lewis and Tauber families for inspiring us with their stories of generosity and family commitment.
