About Amy and Bruce Pascal
Bruce Pascal has been an invaluable and enthusiastic member of B’nai B’rith’s Board of Governors for a decade. Though he has a particular interest in the B’nai B’rith’s International Center for Human Rights and Public Policy, his attention to B’nai B’rith’s multi-faceted work has been limitless. Bruce also devotes his considerable energy to State of Israel Bonds and to Rachael’s Women’s Center, a safe house for homeless women.
Professionally, Bruce is executive vice president of CBRE, a real estate firm. He earned the Greater Washington Commercial Association of Realtors “Broker of the Year Award” in 2009 and in 2010, was the organization’s top leasing agent in Washington, D.C. Amy’s community involvement is also diverse and far-reaching. She recently chaired a fundraising drive for the Children’s National Medical Center’s Blood and Bone Marrow Transplant Outpatient Center. This effort enabled the hospital to close the funding gap needed in order to build the dedicated center for the youngest of patients who are vulnerable to infection in the common areas of the hospital. Additionally, for the past three years, Amy has chaired Mitzvah Day, which benefited multiple groups such as The Children’s Inn at NIH, Coalition for the Homeless Men’s Emergency Shelter, The Lord’s Table community soup kitchen, Manna Food Center, Bikes for the World, Interfaith Clothing Center and other local charities. She has also hosted fundraisers for Freedom Now and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. In 2011, Bruce and Amy co-chaired the 33rd annual Ambassador’s Ball held in Washington, D.C.
