Hadassah Southern Seaboard is home to nearly 5,200 members across Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia. The region includes eight chapters in Virginia and North Carolina, with additional members throughout West Virginia. Chapters range in size from 17 to over 1,000 members. Each chapter’s community is unique, and while they all support Hadassah’s important mission, they do so in ways that fit their local characteristics. Our goal as a region is to support our chapters and provide meaningful opportunities for Hadassah women to come together to share experiences, to learn and study together, and to build community while supporting Hadassah’s healing work in the US, Israel and around the world.
Welcome to Hadassah Southern Seaboard, which includes most of North Carolina and Virginia, as well as a couple small chapters in West Virginia. Our region has a rich history of advocating for social justice and women’s health equity, and supporting Israel. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and continuing to heal the world, together.
