Meet Eliza Kanner: three-season veteran New England Patriots Cheerleader, past Miss Connecticut and Senior Development Officer at Combined Jewish Philanthropies

Would you rather be the star of a bad team or an average player on an elite team? Would you rather watch a regular season game courtside or a high-stakes playoff game from the rafters? Did you know that Pee Wee Reese got his nickname from his marble shooting days as a boy, Mickey Mantle’s middle name was Charles or that Hank Arron was born in Jacksonville Florida? Now that I have your attention, mark your calendar for the next installment of the FJMC Sports Affinity Group.

Eliza Kanner

Please tune in on Tuesday, December 19, 2023 at 8pm ET when the FJMC Sports Affinity Group will feature guest speaker Eliza Kanner.
