BERGEN COUNTY SECTION’S OPENING MEETING FEATURED PHIL DONAHUE

Bergen County Section’s opening meeting on September 17 scored a WOW with guest speaker Phil Donahue! The audience of 250 members and guests were delighted to hear “The King of Daytime Talk” share in his warm and affable way some special moments in his outstanding career.  He noted that he has been blessed to have shared in the lives of some ordinary people as well as some famous “stars” he had the privilege of meeting and interviewing over the years. He would like to see our country be more accepting of the “others” among us.

Phil Donahue praised NCJW for the work that we do and for our dedication to our mission.
