Women philanthropists are change-makers and community-shapers. We are sisters and daughters, mothers and friends, compassionate and committed women at every stage of life and career.
Jewish Federation’s Women’s Philanthropy engages women in the fulfilling work of making the world a better place. We build and support Jewish life for today and for generations to come.
