The Four Seasons Hotel des Berges, along Lake Leman in Geneva, was the venue for an elegant, intimate, inspiring dinner for 30 community leaders and donors, hosted by Hadassah Switzerland, sponsored by Banque Gutzwiller et Cie SA, and featuring Prof. Azaria Rein, head of Pediatric Cardiology at the Hadassah Medical Center.

Graciously opened by Hadassah Switzerland President Ellen Frick-Delman, the event  served to introduce Hadassah to influential and high-powered business people and leaders of Geneva. Prof. Rein touched and impressed the distinguished audience with a compelling presentation–in French–about Hadassah’s groundbreaking research, his own life-saving cardiac surgery on newborns and fetuses in utero, and Hadassah’s new Sarah Wetsman Davidson Tower.

“Everyone left the dinner eager to visit Hadassah Hospital,” relates Helaine Ohayon, President of Hadassah International, who came to Switzerland especially for this event. “Current supporters,” she said, “were re-energized and potential supporters were thoroughly engaged; everyone was so warm and enthusiastic about being there.” She adds: “My greatest thrill is connecting people to Hadassah and seeing them enthralled, as I am, by the work of our Medical Center.
