Women’s Philanthropy of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation (GMJF) is proud to host “The Women’s Event,” a brunch buffet that brings together hundreds of Jewish women of all backgrounds to celebrate friendship, community and philanthropy. Through their commitment of time and support to the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign, these exceptional women are helping to care for those in need, fund vital programs and strengthen Jewish life in Miami, in Israel and in more than 70 other countries around the world.

This year’s event features guest speaker Lisa Edelstein, who has had a long and distinguished acting career known for her work in the Bravo series “Girlfriend’s Guide to Divorce”, the TV show “House”, and ABC’s “The Good Doctor”, to name a few. She will speak about Jewish stereotypes in Hollywood and the media.

The event is being chaired by Elise Udelson. Ilene Kossman is President of Women’s Philanthropy and Tammy Woldenberg is Campaign Chair. Jeffrey Scheck is Federation Board Chair and Isaac K. “Ike” Fisher is General Campaign Chair.
