Welcome to Hadassah Southern Seaboard! We are honored to serve as co-presidents of this thriving region, which includes most of North Carolina and Virginia, as well as a couple small chapters in West Virginia.
Our region has a rich history of advocating for social justice and women’s health equity, and supporting Israel. Through initiatives like Date With the State, we build relationships with our representatives to strengthen US-Israel relations, combat antisemitism and fight for reproductive rights. The advocacy and education programs spearheaded by women in our region educate the community at large on an array of issues, ranging from current events in Israel to breast cancer health. Southern Seaboard’s chapters and members raise funds in a variety of creative and engaging ways to support Hadassah’s mission. We help support our two hospitals in Jerusalem, with their outstanding care and research; and our two Youth Aliyah villages, Meir Shfeyah and Hadassah Neurim. At Hadassah Southern Seaboard, we truly live by the guiding vision of tikkun olam (repairing the world)!
If you are new to Hadassah Southern Seaboard or want to learn more about getting involved, please feel free to reach out to either or both of us. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and continuing to heal the world, together.
