Krafts Co-Chair ProzBowl

If you haven't already marked your calendars for the Hebrew College ProzBowl on Sunday, May 7, here's a reminder and extra incentive.

Join Prozdor Nation at Gillette Stadium for a festive benefit celebration of great student performances, visits with Patriots athletes and cheerleaders, stadium tours and soccer clinics with the New England Revolution. Then stay for the Post-Bowl Supper to hear co-host Robert Kraft in a rare public speaking engagement as he delivers the keynote address, honoring Hebrew College's phenomenal Prozdor High School.

Highly respected for his community involvement and business endeavors as founder, chair and CEO of The Kraft Group and owner of The New England Patriots, Robert Kraft also attended Prozdor in the 1950s.

Robert and his wife, Myra, enthusiastically agreed to co-chair the Hebrew College ProzBowl, a gala benefit celebration for the College and the Prozdor, because they believe the Prozdor's academic variety, creativity and choice embody the ideal curricular model for a secular or religious institution.

"Today, Prozdor reaches so many hundreds of kids because they want to come," says Myra Kraft. "For Jewish teens, if their Jewish education is a positive experience, it forms who they are, and Judaism will often remain central to their home life in the future."

A 2001 Me’ah graduate, Myra has followed her parents’ tradition and committed herself to serving both the Jewish and secular communities. She is president and director of the New England Patriots Charitable Foundation and a trustee of The Robert and Myra Kraft Family Foundation.

"Through our involvement with the ProzBowl, and our encouraging others to get involved, we are showing what leadership is," she says.
