Federation to Host 2013 Pacesetter Event
As its name implies, the Pacesetter Event is one of the most important events of the year for the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, setting the pace for the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign by raising millions of dollars to support vital social services in Miami, in Israel and around the world.
On Wednesday, December 12, hundreds of Miami’s most enthusiastic philanthropists will gather in solidarity in the Sparkle Ballroom at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach to address major topics of concern to the Jewish people and pledge support for the most vulnerable.
Headlining the Pacesetter Event will be keynote speaker David Brooks. A political and social analyst, Brooks is an Op-Ed columnist at The New York Times and a commentator on The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer.
