The event will kick off with a cocktail reception at 11 a.m., followed by brunch at noon.

Judy Kramer, a retired Miami-Dade County Public Schools executive, who has chaired the event since its inception 8 years ago is graciously co-chairing this year’s event again. Joining Judy this year are the mother-daughter team, Lisa Mendelson and Lindsey Mendelson, who will be engaging younger professionals and philanthropists with pre-events and promotions.
