Smith Life Communities Hebrew Home’s Aunt Minnie Luncheon, Jewish Women International’s Women to Watch, Israel Bonds’ Ambassador Ball, The Technion Society Dinner, JFGH’s Gala and the Hidden Children Exhibit at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Smith Life Communities Hebrew Home; Past Chairman of the Women’s Division of Israel Bonds; and was also the Advisor of Alpha Epsilon Phi Sorority at the University of Maryland.  Stanley is a long-time active volunteer with the JCC of Greater Washington’s Dinner of Champions/Sports Hall of Fame and Most Valuable Kids.
