Stuart Greenblatt, President of the Pythian Youth Foundation, today presented the Soref JCC with a check in the amount of $5,000.  Stuart was joined by his wife Hope along with Norman and Susan Bergstein.  Norman is Past President of PYF but remains very involved.

PYF distributes checks to Special Needs Camps located throughout Florida, from the northern end of Florida down to Miami.  PYF receives donations from its members, grantors and friends, so that it can distribute the funds for the purpose of providing a great summer experience to disadvantaged children who are mentally and physically challenged, as well as to those who have severe medical diseases.  The Soref JCC applauds PYF for its tireless and generous efforts to help these children, as it has done for many past years.

At the Soref JCC's annual meeting last evening, Coral Springs Mayor Scott J. Brook was presented with the Samuel M. & Helene Soref Community Service Award for his extensive community work.  Past prominent awardees include Honorable Ilene Lieberman, Mayor Judy Paul (Town of Davie), Honorable Robert Butterworth, Commissioner Byron Jaffe (City of Weston), and Honorable Howard Finkelstein (Broward County Public Defender).  The annual meeting celebrated 42 years of community impact by the Soref JCC.
