Jewish News Syndicate — A4BGU CEO, Doug Seserman and Toby & Leon Cooperman Sinai Residences Boca Raton, a not-for-profit continuing care retirement community (CCRC), on Monday hosted a ceremony to celebrate the dedication of the Rachel and Max Javit Medical Simulation and Classroom Building at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU).
Rachel is a Sinai Residences resident. Her husband, Max, passed away in 2019. Their transformative gift is enabling BGU to dramatically expand its impact on health-care training, education and research. With the support of the Javits, the state-of-the-art building will be a magnet for attracting Israel’s best and brightest medical students and healthcare professionals to receive their training at BGU.
“It was highly meaningful to witness the Sinai Residences community discover the innovative spirit of Ben-Gurion University,” Seserman said. “We convey our deepest appreciation to Rachel Javit and to Max, of blessed memory, for their transformative gift.”
