Dear Hadassah Florida Broward Members,
 
On April 22, the tenth of Iyar, Theordore Herzl Day, the National Assembly held a zoom meeting to update the leadership on the latest happenings in Hadassah, National President, Rhoda Smolow presiding.
We know Herzl as the Father of Modern Zionism, and in that role, he made some very important statements, that have also been echoed by Henrietta Szold and Hadassah leadership through the decades.

What I Learned About Mentoring From Hadassah

To me, Hadassah and mentoring are intertwined; you can’t have one without the other.

By Randi Lampert

Webster’s dictionary defines a mentor as “a trusted counselor or guide.” Other definitions are similar, usually mentioning that the mentor has more experience than the person they are mentoring, and the need to build trust within the relationship.

I first became involved in Hadassah when I enrolled my two young children in its Training Wheels program. I knew nothing about the organization at that time. Unlike many others, my mother and grandmother had not been members. I joined simply to have something fun and Jewish to do with my two young sons. While I really enjoyed Training Wheels, as did my boys, the best part of it was the beginning of my involvement with Hadassah. It was there that I met the first of many women who would encourage me to step up to leadership roles in the organization. In other words, they were my first Hadassah mentors.

Lets Stay Connected Graphic 

With the upcoming holiday of Yom Yerushalayim, commemorating the reunification of Jerusalem, it's time to reflect on Hadassah's commitment to supporting Israel, which has been the foundation of Hadassah from our very beginning and is still going strong today.

Several upcoming programs focus on Israel that you won't want to miss. Plus, you can join a special panel discussion on family-building in the US and Israel for National Infertility Awareness Week as well as informative, engaging programs on women's empowerment, health and wellness, and more.

What's ahead for Israel?: Join Michael Oren, Israel's former ambassador to the United States and Knesset member, for a thought-provoking conversation on the future challenges and opportunities for the Jewish state. The Hadassah Magazine Discussion with Executive Editor Lisa Hostein is partnering with Access Israel, Hadassah's online monthly Zionist series. Thursday, May 13, 12:30 pm ET.

More motivation to get moving: More than 650 people participated in Round 1 of Every Move Counts, our new health and wellness program designed for all ages and abilities. Our easy Walker Tracker tool helps convert steps of all kinds into movements, which advance you on a virtual Israel Adventure filled with fun Hadassah facts and videos. Round 2 has exciting new features to boost wellness and keep the adventure fresh. A great way for past participants to continue and invite along friends, and for new people to join in the fun, Round 2 begins on May 20 and registration is now open.
