The ballroom at Hilton Orlando/Altamonte Springs was abuzz with excitement as 100 guests gathered on Monday, Dec. 2, for Jewish Pavilion Senior Services' Annual JP Connections Hanukah Luncheon. The event delivered on its promise of gourmet cuisine, festive holiday shopping, and a heartfelt celebration of volunteerism.
The highlight of the luncheon was the recognition of Joan Walker as Volunteer of the Year. Walker delivered an inspiring speech that resonated deeply with the audience, sharing how her work with Jewish Pavilion Senior Services has helped her honor her mother's memory while making a meaningful difference in the lives of seniors.
"It's turned out to be a wonderful way to honor my mother's memory," she said. "I encourage others to volunteer. They'll get as much out of it as the seniors do."
Nancy Ludin, CEO of Jewish Pavilion Senior Services, expressed her gratitude to the volunteers and donors who sustain the organization's mission of enriching the lives of seniors of all faiths. "Our volunteers are the heart of what we do, and Joan exemplifies the spirit of compassion and dedication that drives us forward," Ludin said.
