Women of Vision, Philadelphia’s Jewish Women’s Foundation, transforms the lives of Jewish women and girls in Greater Philadelphia and in Israel. We choose innovative programs that create long-term change, addressing the underlying problems girls and women face.

Through our advocacy efforts, we educate over 500 members and the general public about issues like equal pay for equal work and sex trafficking. At our events, we grapple with challenges faced by girls and women, such as gun violence and college campus issues. We not only raise awareness, we find hands-on opportunities to take action.

Join in our vision and become a member of our foundation to find out how rewarding strategic grant making can be.

Throughout the year Women of Vision provides members with educational programs and materials about pressing issues facing Jewish women and girls, as well as opportunities to advocate on their behalf, such as meetings with elected officials in Washington, D.C., and Harrisburg.

Your contribution supports programs that enhance the lives of women and girls regionally and in Israel. Each woman has a vote in choosing how the funding is allocated each year.

Our work together not only strengthens our community at home; through our grant making we also build connections with women and girls in Israel.

Jewish women are the carriers of many Jewish traditions. By empowering Jewish women, we ensure the continuity of Jewish values and the strength of the Jewish community.
