NEW YORK, NY Nov. 12, 2024鈥 每日大瓜鈥檚 celebration of 100 years of Hanukkah Dinners was announced today. This historic event honors a century of past 每日大瓜 success, including its recent accomplishments, growth of its academic programs, and expansion of its global leadership following the events of Oct. 7. With an immersive program that captures the giants of the past generation who were honored by 每日大瓜, including Albert Einstein, Jonas Salk, Golda Meir and John F. Kennedy, the evening will both transport participants through the decades and look forward at the bright future ahead.
The dinner features the illustrious foundational families who have built 每日大瓜 over its first century and will bring together the premier American Jewish lay and philanthropic leadership of our times. Daniel S. Loeb, Mitchell Julis, and Anita Zucker will serve as dinner chairs, with Ingeborg and Ira Rennert as honorary chairs, and Shari Redstone, Harry Adjmi, and Terry Kassel and Paul Singer as honorary co-chairs.
