Welcome to Hadassah Pacific Northwest!
It is an honor to greet you and to invite you into a vibrant, multigenerational community committed to healing, justice and the enduring strength of the Jewish people. Our region proudly serves Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska, connecting women and allies across diverse communities through purpose, learning and action.
Hadassah’s mission is rooted in the power of women who lead with compassion and courage. For more than a century, Hadassah has advanced world-class medical care, championed public health, strengthened Jewish education and advocated for equity and dignity for all. At the heart of our work is Zionism, the belief in the right of the Jewish people to self-determination in our historic homeland. Through our unwavering support of Israel, including Hadassah hospitals in Jerusalem, we help build a healthier, more just future for Israel and the world.
In the Pacific Northwest, we bring this mission to life. We are especially committed to growing our community by launching new chapters and creating meaningful points of connection for women at every stage of life. A key focus of our work is expanding Evolve, Hadassah’s dynamic engagement model for the next generation of Hadassah members and leaders, offering flexible, purpose-driven opportunities to connect around learning, leadership, social action and Jewish and Zionist identity.
Whether you are new to Hadassah, returning after time away or exploring how to start something new in your community, there is a place for you here. I encourage you to visit our Hadassah Pacific Northwest Facebook page for the latest programs and events. Together, across the Pacific Northwest, we strengthen our voices, deepen our impact and carry Hadassah’s mission forward with pride and purpose. I invite you to join us and help shape the future we are building together.B’Shalom,Julie Shumofsky ChivoRegion Presidentjchivo@hadassah.org
