Celebrate CJE’s 20th Annual Gala

Celebrate CJE 2025: A Night to Remember

Our community came together for an unforgettable evening of laughter, connection, and purpose at Celebrate CJE! From heartfelt moments to Modi Rosenfeld’s incredible performance, the night was truly special. Thanks to your generosity—whether through attendance, sponsorship, or tribute book support—we raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to help older adults and caregivers thrive.

We are grateful to everyone who made this event a success!
