The New Jewish Home 2020 Eight Over 80 Benefit Gala

Celebrating Eight Remarkable Lives

The 2024 Eight Over Eighty Gala
 
Eight Over Eighty showcases eight extraordinary individuals who personify the value of aging well into our 80s and beyond. We champion the importance of embracing life with meaningful intention, purpose, and an expectation of continued accomplishment. Eight Over Eighty was created to galvanize public attention while raising critical funds to support our mission.
The 2024 Eight Over Eighty Gala will take place on May 29, 2024 at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in NYC. More information to follow.

The Spirit Award

Michael Shamalov – CEO, LI Script Pharmacy

The Spirit Award recognizes an individual who is well aligned with The New Jewish Home’s mission, and acknowledges how we as a society have a generational opportunity – right now – to meet the needs of older adults during what is truly a transformational moment. Michael Shamalov’s partnership, both personally and through LI Script, empowers The New Jewish Home to provide quality, compassionate care to older adults who need and deserve it.
