Celebrating Community at the 2014 Pacesetter Event

On Thursday, December 19, hundreds of Miami’s most committed philanthropists will gather at the Hilton Miami Downtown to celebrate Jewish community and pledge their support for the most vulnerable at the Greater Miami Jewish Federation’s annual Pacesetter Event.

Headlining the Pacesetter Event will be keynote speaker The Honorable Ehud Barak, former Prime Minister of Israel. Following a distinguished career in the Israel Defense Forces where he was the most decorated soldier in Israeli history, Mr. Barak entered politics and served Israel in several capacities, including as Prime Minister and Minister of Defense.

A $10,000 suggested minimum gift per invited couple to the 2014 Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign or membership in the Greater Miami Jewish Federation Star of David or Heritage Societies is requested.
