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.
Hadassah, The Women’s Zionist Organization of America, is a volunteer organization that inspires a passion for and commitment to the land, the people, and the future of Israel. Through education, advocacy, and youth development, and its support of medical care and research at Hadassah Medical Organization, Hadassah enhances the health and lives of people in Israel, the United States and worldwide.
Founded in 1912 by Henrietta Szold, Hadassah is a volunteer-driven organization that inspires a passion for and commitment to the partnership between the United States and Israel. With nearly 300,000 members, associates, and supporters nationwide, Hadassah empowers women to effect change through advocacy, education, and philanthropy.
Hadassah’s medical, educational, and youth institutions in Israel are central to its mission. The Hadassah Medical Organization, which includes two world-class hospitals in Jerusalem, is internationally recognized for excellence in healing, teaching, and research. Through its Youth Aliyah villages and other programs, Hadassah has helped rescue and nurture at-risk youth from around the world.
In the United States, Hadassah advocates on critical issues such as women’s health, antisemitism, and support for Israel. Through leadership development initiatives, educational programs, and community engagement, Hadassah cultivates generations of empowered women leaders.
For over a century, Hadassah has built bridges to peace, advanced medical breakthroughs, and strengthened Jewish identity and continuity — all while working toward its vision of a better world through healing, innovation, and advocacy.
