The classic features golf, pickleball, bridge, canasta, and mahjong tournaments. Last year’s event raised over $111,000 thru sponsorships, donations, and player registrations.
The tournament is named in memory of michael Frankel, a former JGS board chairman, and in honor of the Raymond and Herman Kinsler families, who have long supported JGS Lifecare.
Susan Halpern, vice president of Development at JGS Lifecare, said the Frankel and Kinsler families have provided unusual leadership. She added that the tournament pays tribute to them and helps continue their legacy of caring.
JGS Lifecare, like many elder care organizations, faces financial challenges due to insufficient government funding and rising costs. The Frankel-Kinsler Classic serves as a vital source of community support to bridge this gap.
