Event to honor Temple Emanu-El's Rabbi Brenner Glickman and support seniors in need
Aviva Senior Living announces its 2027 fundraising brunch, Welcome to the Good Life, to be held Sunday, February 7, 2027, at 11:00 a.m. at Michael’s On East. Co-chaired by Sepi and Ryan Ackerman, the event will benefit Aviva’s Benevolent Care Fund while honoring Temple Emanu-El’s Rabbi Brenner Glickman for his dedication and service to the community.
The brunch will bring together friends, supporters, residents, and community leaders to celebrate The Good Life that Aviva strives to create every day. The program will feature inspiring stories that reflect Aviva’s mission and highlight the Benevolent Care Fund’s lasting impact.
“At Aviva, we believe every senior deserves the comfort of knowing they will always have a place to call home,” said Jay Solomon, President and CEO of Aviva Senior Living. “The Benevolent Care Fund reflects our unwavering commitment to caring for our residents with dignity and compassion, regardless of life’s unexpected financial challenges. We are grateful to everyone whose generosity makes that promise possible.”
Deeply rooted in Aviva’s mission, the Benevolent Care program provides financial assistance for residents to remain in the community for the rest of their lives, even when financial circumstances change. The fund helps cover housing, dining, healthcare services and, when needed, a transition to a higher level of care, allowing residents to continue living in the community they know and love with dignity, stability and peace of mind.
“I am so impressed with Aviva, and I am honored to be associated with an organization that is so deeply committed to service, care and resident satisfaction,” said Temple Emanu-El Rabbi Brenner Glickman. “It is such a blessing to live at Aviva, and helping ensure that others can experience that same sense of community and care is one of the most wonderful gifts we can give.”
Working alongside Co-Chairs Sepi and Ryan Ackerman, the 2027 Welcome to the Good Life Brunch committee includes Sheila Birnbaum, Fran Braverman, Meredith Dropkin, Judy Fox, Rabbi Elaine Glickman, Gerry Ronkin, Lori Solomon, Danny Weiss, and Debbie Yonker.
