We can’t wait to celebrate with you.
We’re honored to recognize Dr. Bob Rubenstein, whose vision and dedication have helped shape both the legacy and the future of this community.
Guided by the leadership of our Campaign Co-Chairs, whose commitment is helping bring this evening — and this milestone year — to life.
For ninety years, this community has been held up by people who decided that showing up mattered. Cornerstone is the night we honor that, together, and look toward what comes next.
A legacy of impact. A future of possibility.
It began with a promise: that no one in our community would stand alone. A foundation built to carry generations.
Ninety years on, that promise is stronger than ever, a community that shows up for one another in San Diego, in Israel, and around the world.
What we build now becomes the foundation for those who follow.
Ninety years of impact, in their words.
It reminded me that my Jewish journey isn’t just about what I do at home or in my own shul, but about showing up for other Jews and communities wherever they are.
I feel more knowledgeable about Federation. I have more resources at hand. I feel more capable to lead in ways I am still processing from this experience.
People want to be with other Jewish people more than ever before.
