Community Members will Rise to the Occasion at the Ben-Gurion Society Event

On Wednesday, January 25 at 7 p.m., members of the Ben-Gurion Society will come together for an evening of celebration and community at the Moore Building, located at 4040 NE 2nd Avenue, Miami. The event will feature a cocktail reception, dancing and live entertainment.

The Ben-Gurion Society is a national donor recognition program for individuals ages 25 to 45, acknowledging those who make a gift of $1,000 or more to their Federation’s Annual Campaign.

“This event provides a great opportunity for the young leaders of our community to rise to the occasion – to show their support for Jewish people in Miami, in Israel, and around the world,” said Scott Wagner, who, along with wife Shoshanna Wagner, is co-chairing the event.

Couvert for this event is $54 (not tax-deductible) and includes light dinner fare (dietary laws observed). Valet and metered street parking will be available.

A $1,000 suggested minimum gift to the 2012 Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign is requested, payable throughout the year.
