The 18th annual 2010 Golden Achievement Awards Dinner, honoring the accomplishments of distinguished Clevelanders, was held May 2nd at the Country Club, Pepper Pike.   Over $60,000 was raised for the Golden Age Centers home delivered meal program, which provides an average of 280,000 hot nutritious meals annually to homebound seniors in our community - perhaps the largest program of its type in the Cleveland area.


Dinner Co-Chairs: Lori Joseph Schmitt and Barbara Bellin Janovitz
