Forever Lions – A Legacy of Women as Philanthropists and Leaders
By Lauren Rickoff, Director of Campaign and Women's Philanthropy, Jewish Federation & Foundation of Northeast Florida
Swimming in the pool at the Jewish Community Alliance (JCA), Havdalah at Jewish overnight camp, prepping for a Bar or Bat Mitzvah at religious school, and your first trip to Israel may be some early memories of being Jewish. What memories do you want your children and grandchildren to create? What legacy do you want to entrust? What does forever mean to you?
A total of 25 Forever Lions have chosen to support our Northeast Florida Jewish community in perpetuity. These women ensure that the work they are doing with their time, energy and philanthropy will live on. They are ensuring that the community they are building today is here for future generations as they exemplify l’dor v’dor, which is Hebrew for "from generation to generation." Passing on their values and sharing the significance of a vibrant Jewish community are of immense importance. We honor them: Sue Eaglstein
