Rabbi and Mrs. Yoseph will be honored for the Pillar of the Community Award, Samantha Gilbert will be honored for the Community Service Award and Daniel Levy will be honored for the Leadership Award. Actor, comedian and professor Reuven Russell will also make an appearance.

Chabad will also host its fifth annual Chinese and silent auctions during dinner where prizes such as jewelry and amusement park passes will be auctioned off. Raffles for Super Bowl, Masters Tournament and Grammy Award Show tickets will also take place. Bids and tickets can be placed and bought at www.WinWithChabad.com.
