Lion of Judah Luncheon Celebrates Philanthropic Women

The Lion of Judah program was established in Miami in 1972 to recognize women’s philanthropy. Today, more than 14,000 women throughout North America, Israel and around the world proudly wear their Lion of Judah pins as a symbol of their commitment to the Federation/UJA Campaign. The Greater Miami Jewish Federation now raises more than $25 million annually to help Jews in need in Miami, in Israel and in 60 countries worldwide.
Marie Brenner, a best-selling author and an award-winning investigative journalist, was guest speaker at the Lion of Judah Luncheon.
