UCSF and the Jewish Home partner for research A world of interests ...

Participating in such a worthy endeavor as the
Jewish Home’s annual golf tournament should be
rewarded by having this chip shot land in the hole.
Committee member Ben
Anixter made sure the
2009 tournament was even
more exciting and effective
by introducing a raffle
component, which generated
$10,000 for the Home. Not
only did Ben underwrite the
administration of the raffle,
but he donated the prize –
a timelessly elegant men’s
Rolex watch.
With thanks to the tremendously hardworking tournament committee, our sponsors
and all tournament participants, the event raised over $190,000 – the most in the
tournament’s history – to support the activities and programs that make the Jewish
Home renowned for the care it provides seniors.
