Naples Lion of Judah roar into 2025

By Gail Smith & Estelle Price, Lion of Judah Co-chairs

Let the season of roaring begin! Come one, come all to the Nina Iser Jewish Cultural Center on Thursday, Feb. 27 at 11:30 a.m. for the first Lion of Judah luncheon of the 2025 season. Please take note that individual head shots of each Lion will be taken. We plan to use these to recognize you. Be sure to wear your lovely Lion of Judah pin.

Lion Behind the Pin Coordinator and Endowment Chair Paula Filler will give us a brief update on our project. She has spent much time and energy making the Lion Behind the Pin initiative very successful for our community. Thank you, Paula.

Our featured speaker, National Women's Philanthropy Chair for Jewish Federations of North America Iris Kraemer, previously served as a board member and campaign chair of Jewish Federation and Foundation of Northeast Florida. She has been a member of the National Women’s Philanthropy Board for the past four years. Kraemer also sits on the board of trustees of Jewish Federations of North America and is a Jewish Agency for Israel North America (JAFINA) Advisory Board member. She will discuss women and the important role we play in the continuity of Jewish life, both locally and abroad. At the luncheon, we look forward to introducing all our new Lion of Judah Society members. We’re really growing and are proud to say that, again this year, we’ve gained many new Lions to add their roar to our pride.

We’ve arranged a unique season of exciting activities so please plan to attend our informative enjoyable events. We look forward to seeing you soon!
