Kol Israel Foundation ‘Rock to Remember’
The Kol Israel Foundation held its second annual “Rock To Remember” benefit Oct. 18 at The Greenville Inn in the Village of Chagrin Falls. The foundation, comprised of grandchildren of Holocaust survivors, helps to combat intolerance and hatred through educational programming. Through the aid of family videos, the group educates students at the junior high, high school and college level, and other groups and organizations as well. Guests mixed, mingled and enjoyed food and a live band.
NEOFAN Halloween Boo-tique
Eton Chagrin Boulevard and the NorthEast Ohio Food Allergy Network partnered Oct. 25 to host lots of little ghosts, goblins and Ninja Turtles at their Halloween Boo-tique at the Woodmere shopping center. Hundreds of children attended and received candy, snacks and special treats for those with food allergies. The treats were symbolized by a teal color pumpkin. NEOFAN’s mission is to minimize the impact of food allergies on families. It provides tools to the newly diagnosed, promotes education and builds public awareness.
