RFC 20th Anniversary Gala Celebration

SAVE THE DATE!

20 years ago, an unfulfilled corporate lawyer with a remarkable personal history sat up in bed and realized what he wanted to do with his life. That lawyer was Robert Meeropol and the organization that he immediately got to work building was the Rosenberg Fund for Children (RFC).

Join us for the centerpiece event in the series of 20 programs in 20 cities in 20 months, to mark the Rosenberg Fund for Children's 20th anniversary!

Enjoy a cash bar and complimentary hors d'oeuvres from Easthampton's Apollo Grill, while you hear Robert Meeropol's inspiring story, music by Evelyn Harris (formerly of Sweet Honey in the Rock), and a talk by a very special guest to be announced soon.

This benefit event celebrates 20 years of the RFC's work helping the children of targeted activists in western MA and across the country. RFC beneficiary families have been active in the struggles to wage peace; safeguard the environment; preserve civil liberties; and organize on behalf of workers, prisoners, and others whose human rights are under threat.
