the William Davidson Foundation and several partners
hosted the third annual Jewish Expat Reception.
Held at Empire Kitchen & Cocktails in Detroit Sept. 12, the gathering drew
some 120 current and former Detroiters to reconnect and connect anew, all while
tightening their ties to the Detroit Jewish community.
Ralph J. Gerson, treasurer and director at the Davidson Foundation, served as
the emcee. “It’s fitting,” Gerson said, “that the William Davidson Foundation sup-
ports Detroit Homecoming and the Jewish Expat Reception. These events reflect
our commitment to the growth and preservation of Jewish life and culture — and
the long-term health and welfare of Detroit and the region.
Francine Hermelin Levite of New York, who is working on the Detroit Jewish
renaissance as creative director of Reboot, spoke and led an exercise on six-word
memoirs. The phrases were streamed live on a ticker placed above the bar. Scott
Kaufman, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit, also offered
remarks.
Other hosts included the Applebaum Family Philanthropies, the Max and
Marjorie Fisher Foundation, the Mandell and Madeleine Berman Foundation, the
Jacob Family Foundation and the Gilbert Family Foundation.
And what was Gerson’s six-word memoir? “Jewish Detroit punches above our
weight.”
