Harold Pupkewitz was a giant in his generation. As a young lawyer he started building a business that he developed into an empire. Many of us have met and read about highly successful businessmen. What makes Harold stand head and shoulders above them all was his tremendous generosity. Numerous people make a fortune; few are willing to share that wealth. Harold made assisting others an integral part of his business ethic. Whether is was empowering the people of Namibia, providing for the elderly in Johannesburg or supporting Keren Telfed in Israel, Harold ensured that the biblical dictum of "Love thy neighbour as thyself" was fulfilled, both for Jew and non-Jew alike.
