Companydescription
Hadassah, The Women’s Zionist Organization of America, was founded before Israel was a state and before women could vote. We didn’t sit on the sidelines then. And we certainly don’t now.
Today, we’re 300,000 strong, across the country and across the generations, proof of just how big an impact we can have when we bring philanthropy and women’s leadership together.
For 100+ years, Hadassah has worked proactively to find and implement solutions to some of the most pressing challenges facing each generation. Together, we’re advancing women’s health, supporting a strong Israel and instilling Jewish values in future generations.
We’re helping women find their voices to advance health equity, and fighting hate and antisemitism in the US, and modeling shared society in Israel. Thanks to the medical system in Israel we helped create, new treatments and scientific breakthroughs are saving lives around the world.
