Levy Lectures Series: Find the Helpers

  • Date: 03/16/2021 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM  

Join the Levy Senior Center Foundation on Tuesday, March 16 for a virtual "Find the Helpers" lecture as a part of the Levy Lecture Series. Find the Helpers tells of Fred Guttenberg’s journey since the loss of his brother Michael, a first responder on 9/11 who passed away from cancer related to his service, and the murder of his daughter Jaime, one of the innocent victims of the Parkland school shooting. As someone who has been directly affected by two distinct American tragedies, he shares how he has been able to get through the worst of times thanks to the kindness and compassion of others.

Fred and his wife Jennifer now spend time challenging our elected officials to do more. They began a nonprofit organization dedicated to Jaime’s life called “Orange Ribbons for Jaime.” He has been a regular on TV news programs and a myriad of online and print media. Through the formation of the non-profit, this is now his full-time mission.

Presented via Zoom. Register.
