Michael J. Fox joined Mrs. Lily Safra to officially dedicate The Edmond J. Safra Conference Room at the Foundation’s New York offices, in memory of her late husband. Mrs. Safra and The Edmond J. Safra Foundation made new gifts totaling $6.5 million to the Foundation in late 2012, enabling the Foundation to surpass our $50-million Brin Wojcicki Challenge.

“Lily is one of those people who set a new standard for compassion. Her extraordinary philanthropy in Edmond J. Safra’s name, both within and outside the walls of our Foundation, celebrates knowledge, creativity and learning with one key goal: making this world a better place for those in need,” said Michael J. Fox.
