The National MS Society announced today that Monica Goldstein of Boca Raton will Chair the 40th Annual MS Gala luncheon on January 20th, 2023, at Boca West Country Club. Monica brings a wealth of experience to her role having previously chaired the Gala in 2007 and 2008. In 2009, the Society recognized Monica as the Hope Award Honoree, and she has been serving as an honorary chair since 2010. Honorary co-chairs Carrie Schulman and lla Davidoff join Monica in her leadership for this wonderful philanthropic event.
“Monica Goldstein is an ideal chair for this event because of her commitment to the philanthropic community, her passion for the MS Society, and her enthusiasm and energy in making our 40th year a terrific experience for our guests,” said Carrie Schulman, one of the early supporters of the Gala, former honoree, and current honorary co-chair.
A thousand attendees are expected to gather to celebrate the progress fueled by the philanthropy from this premier event. Due to COVID, for the past two years the event has been virtual, so this will be an opportunity for people to be together for the first time in a couple of years. This event is one of the most prestigious luncheons in South Florida, bringing philanthropists together for an exciting afternoon. Within the last 40 years, this luncheon event has raised nearly $10 million for the National MS Society.
