Jewish Family Service of Houston, a non-profit social service agency that provides support for people facing challenges, hosted its 105th anniversary gala, bringing in a record-breaking $1,700,000. The evening was co-chaired by Sandi and Steven Wolf and Rori and Jason Feldman, and welcomed more than 800 guests at the Royal Sonesta Hotel. Guests enjoyed performances by iLuminate from America’s Got Talent while enjoying a seated dinner. The event also featured a live auction, which raised over $300,000. The program ended with a surprise, when Sue and Lester Smith took the stage along with the organization’s CEO, Linda Burger, and event chairs, presenting the organization with a $300,000 check.
