Nearly 100 <strong>of</strong> our <strong>Federation</strong>’s most visionary, generous<br />
women enjoyed an unforgettable afternoon <strong>of</strong> fashion<br />
history, high tea and philanthropy at the Boca Raton<br />
Museum <strong>of</strong> Art on March 12. They are among the<br />
remarkable women <strong>of</strong> our community whose Lion <strong>of</strong><br />
Judah Endowment (LOJE) gifts will continue to make a<br />
difference to countless people in need locally, in Israel<br />
and overseas forever.<br />
Led by Barbara Werner, <strong>Chai</strong>r <strong>of</strong> Women’s Planned<br />

the 40 LOJEs who have passed on, and welcomed<br />
the season’s new LOJEs to this powerful, prestigious<br />
sisterhood. With 268 LOJEs, <strong>South</strong> Palm Beach County<br />
