Every year, we hold the Judi Schram Annual Meeting with a celebrity guest speaker, boutiques and a luncheon. Every November, we have a huge rummage sale that is always a successful team effort.
There are many fun, informative activities, book clubs, discussion groups and Zionism programs. We know you’ll connect with us and find your passions. We would love to include you as a member. Make sure we have your email address by providing it to midwest@hadassah.org. Join us today.
Hadassah has a long and important history in Detroit. The catalyst for starting our first chapter was Henrietta Szold, the founder of Hadassah, who visited Detroit in 1917. Today our growing area helps to advance medical research at Hadassah’s hospitals, support Youth Aliyah, promote Zionism, and empower women in the US.
