Presidents Message Graphic 
Dear Hadassah Sisters and Friends,
I hope you all had a wonderful Shavuot and Memorial Day Holiday. I spent a wonderful long weekend with my son, daughter in law and granddaughters who I hadn’t seen in a year and a half. But my joy was tempered by what was happening in our beloved Israel.
 
Sadly, I want to share some of what has been going on at Hadassah there. The newly renovated Emergency Room saw more than 60 patients from both sides in the early days of the bombardment. Despite this, staff tires were punctured. One of the first rockets from Gaza landed just a mile and a half from Hadassah Ein Kerem.

Israeli to Arab Transplant
Kidney from Jew killed in mob violence goes to Arab woman
Randa Aweis, 58, waited nine years for the organ donation that would change her life. An Arab Christian, born in the Old City of Jerusalem, she was relying on regular dialysis sessions as her kidneys failed. Then the call came: A donor kidney was available. Aweis had surgery Monday at Jerusalem's famed Hadassah University Hospital Ein Kerem. When she went under the anaesthetic, she did not know who the donor was.

As the situation in Israel continues to escalate, there is an urgent, growing need to support HMO during this emergency as we continue to rely upon our doctors, nurses and staff to — once again — risk their lives while working harder and longer.
Please support Hadassah and HMO during this crucial time. Please help us heal Israel.

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.
