The entire community is invited to celebrate Hadassah’s 100th Birthday Thursday, March 22 at 7:00 pm at the Boulder JCC.
As thousands of members and associates nationwide gather to commemorate this momentous NOT FOR WOMEN ONLY occasion, Boulder celebrates with a party that includes champagne and cake, and a screening of a short documentary about Marc Chagall, whose stained glass windows at the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem are among the Jewish artist’s most beloved and well-known works.
Founded in 1912, Hadassah, the Women’s Zionist Organization of America, is celebrating its 100th year. Hadassah is the largest women’s, largest Zionist, and largest Jewish membership organization in the United States. In Israel, it supports medical care and research, education and youth programs, and reforestation and parks projects. In the United States, Hadassah promotes health education, social action and advocacy, volunteerism, Jewish education and research, Young Judaea and connections with Israel.
