Women of Action
Women of Action is a community of strong, engaged women working hand in hand with JWI to ensure the safety and security of women and girls. Through a generous annual gift of $1000 or more to JWI, Women of Action support work that makes a lasting impact on the lives of women and girls in the U.S. and abroad. They receive exclusive invitations to inspiring and empowering events; select news bulletins; opportunities to join featured conference calls on issues critical to Jewish women and girls; and special recognition at the annual Women to Watch gala.
Join this sisterhood of the most talented, compassionate and dedicated champions for women and girls.
