Hadassah Desert-Mountain unites women from border to border in our diverse and independent region. Our chapters range from suburban to metropolitan, from over a thousand members to a few dozen. Some chapters were chartered a century ago while our newest chapter was chartered in 2021. We share our dedication to Hadassah – and to one another.
Our western hospitality and independent spirit ensure that you'll find friendship and a creative way for you to help make the world a better place. Through philanthropy, advocacy and education, we support Hadassah’s medical research and patient care in Israel and throughout the world. We raise our voices and make a difference in our own communities and around the globe. Hadassah women have the power to heal our world, to inspire, to take action, and to make an impact. Connect with the women of Hadassah Desert-Mountain and together we will change our world.
Hadassah Desert-Mountain unites women from border to border in a diverse and independent Region. We are united by our commitment to Zionism and our mission to heal our world. There is truly something for everyone at Hadassah Desert-Mountain.
