Membership

When you belong to Hadassah, you become part of a powerful force: the largest women's and the largest Zionist membership organization in the United States, with more than 300,000 members. Since Hadassah was founded in 1912, we have been committed to making a difference. Hadassah offers you countless opportunities to change your life and change the world.

Make a Difference in Israel

Hadassah offers tangible ways to connect with Israel and Zionism through education, promoting support for our Israeli projects and acting as informed "goodwill ambassadors" to the Jewish State through the following:

  • Hadassah Medical Organization
  • Hadassah College Jerusalem
  • Hadassah's Youth Aliyah/Children At Risk (helping disadvantaged Israeli children)
  • Young Judaea clubs, camps, and Israel programs
  • Partnering with the Jewish National Fund
  • Israel, Zionist and International Affairs

Make a Difference for Others

Hadassah strives to meet the needs of American Jewish women by focusing on issues such as health and wellness, Jewish continuity, advocacy, and community service. Our initiatives include:

  • Health education programs such as Check It Out, the nationally-recognized Breast Health Awareness project
  • Activism on issues through advocacy
  • Promoting Jewish continuity in America through Jewish Family Education Programs such as Training Wheels
  • Community projects such as the Read*Write*Now! tutoring program, Curriculum Watch, and Mitzvah Day
