2010 Humanitarian of the Year

David W. Singer, Esq.
Humanitarian of the Year

On Sunday April 25, 2010 the Soref Jewish Community Center honored David W. Singer, Esq. at our Humanitarian of the Year Event held at the Signature Grand in Davie. Proceeds from the event support our WECARE Food Pantry dedicated to distributing food to local Broward residents in need. This program provides assistance to all regardless of race, religion, or ethnicity.

David Singer has a long esteemed career dedicated to helping those in need. David has been on the Board of the American Cancer Society, in Broward, for 18 years. He also serves on the Florida Division Board of the American Cancer Society and has been a member of the Executive Board of the American Cancer Society for 7 years. For 16 years, he chaired one of their largest fund raising events in Broward County, Jail & Bail, raising $1.8 million dollars.

David was a founding Board Member of the Hollywood Professional Lions Club National Organization, devoted to improving the quality of eye care. He has served lengthy terms on the Boards of premier non-profit organizations including ARMDI, Jewish Federation of Broward County and the Jewish National Fund. David has been on the Board of the Hollywood Chamber for over 20 years and has been Vice President and Treasurer of the organization. For 7 years, he has been on the Board of Governors at Nova Southeastern University Law Center and now sits on the Executive Board.

This is our largest annual fundraiser to support our WECARE Food Pantry program that has helped our Broward neighbors over the past 30 years. This year alone we will provide food for the needy that will provide for over 60,000 meals. Due to high unemployment, there is a dire need to help those less fortunate with the most basic necessity of life.

Especially in today's difficult time your support is more crucial than ever. 

 

        

       

       

  

The magnitude of this event necessitates the support of many people to obtain silent and live auction items, solicit individual and business sponsors, assist in event preparation, and many other functions.  Please let us know how you can assist us to help raise funds for our WECARE Food Pantry and Children's Scholarship programs.
