Speaking on the call will be Scott Harshbarger, Senior Counsel, Proskauer Rose LLP; Alan Leifer, Chair, Investment Committee of American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee; Member, Board of Managers Combined Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Boston; Michael Stolper, General Partner, Veritable Investment Consultants.
